<p>[QUOTE=&quot;eddiespin, post: 1652438, member: 4920&quot;]Maybe we can make you one of those people. Read it for yourself, PCGS&#039;s definition of &quot;market grading&quot;: &quot;A numerical grade that matches the grade at which a particular coin generally is <i>traded in the marketplace</i>. The grading standard used by PCGS.&quot; Emphasis supplied; <a href="http://www.pcgs.com/Lingo/M" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.pcgs.com/Lingo/M" rel="nofollow">http://www.pcgs.com/Lingo/M</a>.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Not necessarily. They&#039;re fitting coins into the grades they reasonably believe the coins can trade at in the marketplace. That in large part depends on their, well, marketing, doesn&#039;t it? Sure it does. First they have to get us to swallow it. I&#039;ll even show you how they do that. In that same coin glossary, find &quot;technical grading.&quot; Then, understand, it&#039;s no accident it&#039;s not there. Figure it out. They&#039;re phasing it out. They&#039;re phasing you out. Now there&#039;s a subject for a thread.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>I agree, that&#039;s a different subject-matter.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
