If someone ever actually came up with a 70-worthy coin (mind, PCGS is the only TPG I trust with that designation, much as I dislike them otherwise), they either have to grade it that way or be held to account very publicly with photographic proof why they should have.</p><p><br /></p><p>It would be easy for them if they would simply use the strict definition of a 70, but that would probably eliminate close to half the coins they&#039;ve already awarded the grade.
