<p>[QUOTE=&quot;monkeyman, post: 377464, member: 9662&quot;]As many of you know, several coins are posted on cointalk every day to be evaluated as genuine or counterfeit and graded.&nbsp; On most of these threads, there are atleast 5 or 6 opinions on the coins grade.&nbsp; So I was thinking, what if we made that into a kind of grading company.&nbsp; I thought to call it CTGA or cointalk grading average.&nbsp; Lets say five people make a grade on a coin.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>1.Vf-30</p><p>2.Vf-25</p><p>3.Xf40</p><p>4.Vf20</p><p>5.VF25</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>You would then add up all the grades (30,25,40,20,25) and average them together. on this coin, the average grade would be a VF-28 which in turn would round up to a VF-30.&nbsp; then, the way to check to see if the coin that is graded is actually the real coin.&nbsp; The slab could also have the username of the poster of the coin, the title of the thread they started for the coin that they wanted graded, and the date it was posted.&nbsp; Heres My mock up of what it could look like.&nbsp; The only thing it doesnt have is the date the thread was posted.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i150.photobucket.com/albums/s98/marshmallowmonkey/screen-capture-1.png" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Let me know what you think, I know there are problems, like a user who just tries to throw off the grade by calling an unc coin ag-3.&nbsp; But who knows, maybe sometime in the future, CTGA would be just as respected as PCGS or NGC[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
