<p>[QUOTE="CamaroDMD, post: 466732, member: 5233"]That's kind of the point I was making. If you look at a coin graded MS65 by PCGS in 1988 and another graded MS65 in 2008 you will likely see a difference. The TPGs 2008 definition is typically more liberal. You're right, there will always be a high, average, and low for the assigned grade...but that assigned grade has been changing. CAC has a definition of what "premium" is for MS65...they have to have various diagnostics to determine premium from average. If the TPGs continue to get more liberal...CAC will have to alter that definition of "premium" for each grade (by lowering it if the current trend continues) or all the coins that meet their "premium MS65" grade will be slabbed as MS66.</p><p><br /></p><p>I have a question about CAC, I remember reading somewhere that they have different color stickers. One for a "premium" coin of a particular grade and one for a coin that is simply correctly graded. Is that true or did I dream that up?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
