<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Troodon, post: 1930522, member: 4626&quot;]<i>When I am buying a coin</i>, the only opinion that matters as to whether or not I&#039;m paying what the seller is asking is mine, as it should be for any collector (emphasis is important; I was never claiming that my opinion is the only one that mattered in general!).&nbsp; The market can be driven by any valuation it likes; I still have the right to vote with my wallet, and whether it&#039;s graded by PCGS, SEGS, or Billy Bob&#039;s Coin Grading service doesn&#039;t change that.</p><p><br /></p><p>Without arguing further about this coin specifically, I have seen several coins that have incorrectly been declared &quot;cleaned&quot; because of die polish marks, weak strikes, friction marks, etc.&nbsp; It&#039;s not always as obvious as you seem to think it is.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
