<p>[QUOTE=&quot;tpsadler, post: 2351041, member: 9860&quot;]My point was poorly stated on my end.&nbsp; Just because a coin is graded whatever, does not or should imply that to be the major cost factor.&nbsp; Whether by NGC or PCGS or any TPG the character of the coin determines the price a collector will pay for the item regardless of who graded it.&nbsp; Point in case from what I had seen on PCGS Site for Heritage Sale Prices PCGS sold for substantially more for a MS68 Lincoln compared to a NGC MS 68 Lincoln.&nbsp; [USER=45493]@coins776[/USER] had posted a Lincoln asking to guess a grade then showed this coin in a graded slab from PCGS at MS67 then the same coin graded by a NGS @&nbsp; MS 68.. my point maybe from these peoples views and the convoluted (Market Grading) method for grading coins it was thought is was worth around $90 and that then determined the grade they would post.&nbsp;&nbsp; Sorry this will trigger many ideas for why Market vs Technical Grading occurs and how it is impossible to presume anything other than ownership of an item and the approximate worth to you and others.&nbsp; For this very reason I see Technical Grading is superior and including an Attribute Number (Unknown at this time) so we as dealers and collectors get a handle on such a controversial issue.&nbsp;&nbsp; <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />&nbsp; I am now climbing off my chair&nbsp;&nbsp; <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
