They are only 90% repeatable because of the inherent subjectivity in grading. Have you never looked at a coin an thought, I could grade that...
It isn't written anywhere. But if you are going to make ridiculous claims and not back them up, don't get mad at me when I accuse you of blowing...
I saw absolutely nothing in that post about premium gem SLQ's. Just more worthless drivel. Over the years I have endured your boorish BOLD...
