[QUOTE="-jeffB, post: 1928992, member: 27832"]Furthermore, it virtually guarantees that eventually [I]every[/I] slabbed or beaned coin will be overgraded. 1. If it's undergraded, sooner or later someone will resubmit it to get a fair grade. 2. If it's graded fairly, sooner or later someone will resubmit it on the chance that it will get a bump up or a bean. Since grading is inconsistent, sooner or later, some grader will bump it up. The process only stops once the coin is bumped up to such a high grade and/or sticker that nobody believes it could get bumped again -- in other words, until it's overgraded. I'm sure there are some who will disagree with this, but I'm not sure who could disagree with point 1, and I'm pretty confident on point 2 as well. If those two statements are true, the conclusion seems inevitable.[/QUOTE]
