[QUOTE="Lehigh96, post: 764862, member: 15309"]Mike, I agree with what you are saying which is why I didn't argue with you from jump street. However, I think you are giving PCGS just a little more credit than they deserve. I will admit that NGC is more forgiving of dark coins in high grades than PCGS, but the difference is minimal IMO. Both TPG's will penalize coins that are so deeply toned that the luster is muted, not just PCGS. Furthermore, I would hope that the original Washington that I posted in this thread is more appealing in hand than in the photo, but no matter how much better it is, it still won't compare to the star coin in any aspect of grading. Jefferson will undoubtedly have the lowest percentage, but I expect that Roosevelts will have the highest percentage. They are often found deeply toned, with muted luster, in very high grades, by both TPG's.[/QUOTE]
