<p>[QUOTE="Murphy45p, post: 3584079, member: 96005"]Very well demonstrated. Your coin is FAR superior, even to my very untrained eye. Were all of the coins shown by Heritage graded by PCGS? I also wonder about the major dealers with bulk submissions, for instance, if one of the large coin shows submits a pile of coins expecting a certain grade, can their volume (and hence overall revenue stream to the TPG services) influence a grade? Based on the grade of your coin, the others should have been what, MS 61? At least one grade difference in my view, but if the hoard submitted didn't come back at a 63, could those dealers threaten to go to the other TPG and would that influence the grading service? </p><p><br /></p><p>Great thread.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
