<p>[QUOTE=&quot;sf340flier, post: 167813, member: 5806&quot;]In one of Travers&#039; books I believe he interviewed a grader at a top TPG and the grader said that rare coins get a grade bump.&nbsp; I&#039;ll try to find the book and page number.&nbsp; I could have this mixed up.</p><p><br /></p><p>On a seperate point, I am convinced that the graders at PCGS and NGC have no clue who has submitted what coins, but I do wonder if trend might play a role.&nbsp; For instance, if I send in a box of expensive, rare and impressive coins I wonder if I could get a &quot;grouping&quot; bump.&nbsp; I think it&#039;s human nature and the graders would realize that the person sending in the coins is obviously a big time dealer or collector and that much is at stake.</p><p><br /></p><p>Although I will probably never experience this personally because my coins do not rise to the expensive ranks<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie3" alt=":(" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
