Message:: [QUOTE="Leadfoot, post: 1540676, member: 2972"]The question you responded to was about wear versus weak strike as it applies, in practice, to TPGs assigned grades.  Nothing about ANA standards.  Nothing about Redbook.  Nothing about PCGS written standards.  Here's the post, with the references to TPGs in bold: "That is the problem I have with grading Morgans, is it wear or weakly struck.  I sent coins in to be regraded that were marked AU58 and they came back MS63 or MS62. This spring I sent in a 1888-s that came back cleaned so I cracked the coin out of the holder and sent the same coin back in about a month later and the same coin came back MS62. When it comes to grading, if you don't get the grade you want and feel the coin is graded wrong, try sending the coin back in. I only do this if the coins value will increase enough to justify the cost of the regrade. The coin that this thread is about is such a great coin that I would send it in again as its value really increases in ms65. Jim" To me, that question was all about TPG grading, and, to me, you responded incorrectly. Listen, I'm sorry if you took offense to my disagreeing with you.  I will try not to make that mistake again, and this will be my last post on this topic. Take care...Mike[/QUOTE]
