<p>[QUOTE=&quot;SuperDave, post: 2304905, member: 1892&quot;]I don&#039;t know if any of us disagree on any of this. Give me - or Doug, or anyone who&#039;s handled a coin or two in their time - any random issue from any country and a 10x loupe and I bet we can tell if it&#039;s circulated or not with near-100% accuracy. The TPG&#039;s are the way they are because they don&#039;t take the time to discern the difference for each individual coin. They could if they wanted to.</p><p><br /></p><p>The only question is, do we also hew to that lack of sophistication as graders? I don&#039;t, that&#039;s for sure. Any decent collector is as good in their specialties as any TPG, and far more attentive. There are people right here at CT I&#039;d trust over any TPG.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
