<p>[QUOTE=&quot;panzerman, post: 3974578, member: 77704&quot;]Auction houses like Heritage/ Stacks/ Great Collection deal mostly in TPG coins. They would want the outfits like PGGS/PMG/ANACS/NGC to grade accurately. If coins/ notes are overgraded, not good for their reputation. CNG grade really strict/ more in line with UK/European auction houses, thus coins have great eye appeal. My defination of a MS coin=absolutely no wear from circulation/&nbsp; poor handling. Thus when you see a MS-61&nbsp; US 1893-CC Double Eagle, it does not look MS but EF. A truly MS one would look more like a MS-67+. When you see slabbed &quot;hammered&quot; coins, some MS-64/65 definately look EF.</p><p>John[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
