<p>[QUOTE=&quot;BUncirculated, post: 1509220, member: 29581&quot;]I agree with, and have always understood, this. What I&#039;m saying is that the TPGs are not any better equipped to grade, attribute, and designate coins than any knowledgeable collector/dealer. </p><p><br /></p><p>The point Morgandude misses, is before a coin is submitted for grading and PL or DMPL designation, the submitter must think the coin possess PL or DMPL qualities. The only way that belief is substantiated, is by the person examining the coin, and determining, by the coin&#039;s appearance, that has those qualities for the designation. </p><p><br /></p><p>A coin can be a PL or DMPL or any grade without a TPG&#039;s say so, and simply because the coin has not been slabbed, doesn&#039;t make the coin any less than it is. </p><p><br /></p><p>A 64 is a 64 as long as the coin has all the appearances, and meets the criteria for a 64 grade, whether it&#039;s in a 2x2 or a slab.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
