<p>[QUOTE=&quot;imrich, post: 1829583, member: 22331&quot;]Chris, I beg to differ with your purported understanding of TPG value to the Numismatic community. I respect your knowledge enough to believe that you know the &quot;Market Grading&quot; TPG have generated wealthy &quot;cockroaches&quot;. I can only read the tripe about TPG guaranteed grading security so many times before challenging the fallacy in an unregulated market which exists without uniform grading standards even between TPG. Even the existing individual firm &quot;standards&quot; are frequently violated in namesake of &quot;market grading&quot;, seemingly dependent upon coin scarcity.</p><p>I believe that deficiencies in proper? grading standards can be shown for virtually all TPG graded coin types, as I&#039;ve shown on numerous occasions in this venue.</p><p>I personally believe that acquisition of TPG grading, including CAC subgrading adds a semblance of investment security for future resale, but doesn&#039;t assure proper grading. It&#039;s believed that only market acceptability, at a significant premium, is minimally? assured through TPG grading. I have an extraordinary expensive diverse voluminous collection of TPG graded &quot;Mint State&quot; coins, and believe my hypothesis could be easily established by an objective unbiased audience.</p><p>JMHO[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
