[QUOTE="sylvester, post: 29284, member: 708"]I agree with Highlander. Seven grades are enough, Give a plus and a minus, or an A or G before and after the grades, you then have enough flexibility to pinpoint an accurate grade without the problem of a profit orientated grading system as per the 70 points. For example in the UK a coin dealer has two modern mint state coins, a US grader comes along and grades them MS63 and MS65 respectively. The prices for each are different. A UK dealer would just call them both UNC and sell them at the same price. Thus you can pick up the nicest UNC coins by cherry-picking and not having to pay any extra for the priveledge.
