Message:: [QUOTE="BooksB4Coins, post: 2485138, member: 36230"]Okay... now we're getting somewhere, or are at least on the same page; perhaps I should've read this before responding to an earlier post. Regardless, if a set is being graded as a whole, which is exactly what they're doing, and guaranteeing that it's "original", logic dictates that the coins within must be the originals and not, perhaps, ones cherried to bump the "grade". It would (or may) be one thing if each coin was "certified" to have come from an original set (still questionable imo), but that's not what they're doing; they're, this "Original Set Verification Corporation"  is "certifying" the set itself as being "orignal", and again, if toning is the basis for this "expert opinion", what about the perfectly original mint set coins that do not display it? If they want to certify a set, that's fine... certify a 1956 "set". Just don't call it an "original 1956 mint set" or mislead consumers with such a ridiculous "company" name.[/QUOTE]
