[QUOTE="Paddy54, post: 3583377, member: 19250"]Look even grading companies don't get it right! And that's been proven here many times over than the opinons that are posted here...one of the major differences is that us older collectors have a different view as in our time we would discuss the coin and either come up with a trade or purchase. It also been proven here that slabs have been broken out and assigned a better grade most of the time as well a lower or par grade sometimes also. There is a need to revise the current grading system on each series ,as well what are and are not going to grade due to many reasons....the opinions are so many as #1 a member may not know squat about grading, #2 a member has not refreshed their knowlege of any changes in grading policies On the many series.#3 grading companies themselves can not get it correct !
