<p>[QUOTE="eddiespin, post: 2645273, member: 4920"]The shoe fits the horse. I never thought of it like that, exactly, but sure thing, we don't have any basis to question their "market grades." ANA standards? What, eye appeal, and it's got progeny, pedigree, or whatever they're calling that which should be called "provenance" if they had any brains? That's why they don't like your technical grading, ever think of that? If they were technical grading, based on condition, we could judge them. Not so in this market grading scheme, and there's the difference, and why they love it, besides. We can play games in "GTGs." But then, they differ with our grade, i.e., "got it wrong," as we're accustomed to saying, by what standard are we judging their grade against? The condition of the coin? No. The market for it. How pretty it is, to their god, the market, there's their grade. Some "grade." Huh? <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
