<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Breakdown, post: 851114, member: 19532&quot;]I am glad you weighed in on this, Doug. Maybe what I should conclude is that PCGS has made clear in writing on its website how it has graded for some time but that this clarification about how eye appeal can bump a grade by up to a full point shows that PCGS disagrees with NGC&#039;s attempt to segregate eye appeal from the numerical grade. In a system where you bump a grade up based on eye appeal, you could not also have a star system.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I also think there are a few people who are confused about how CAC will deal with Plus coins but they shouldn&#039;t be if they read the CAC press release from March 12. CAC made clear it will ignore a plus on the slab, a star on the slab, a rainbow on the slab etc. If it is assessing an MS66+, CAC will determine whether it considers the coin an MS66 that is an A or a B coin, and if so, will sticker it. It will then guarantee that coin at the CAC going rate for an MS66. The plus designation does not play in at all. Of course, CAC may decide to change its policy, but it seems they are ignoring Plus designations for now.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Jeff[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
