<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ziggy29, post: 13146, member: 1113&quot;]Even if it were possible to use technology to consistently apply the same *technical* grade to a coin -- and at some point, it could be -- it still wouldn&#039;t reflect changing market tastes.&nbsp; At times, maybe toned coins are &quot;in&quot;; other times, maybe blast-white silver pieces are the in thing.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>And while two coins may already reach the same grade technically, you still need to see the coin to determine if it has the right eye appeal for you.&nbsp; In that respect, no grading service or magical whizzbang technical grading machine will ever fully be able to replace seeing the coin, examining it under magnification, swirling it around under a light and applying your own tastes and opinions on eye appeal in terms of valuing the coin.&nbsp; It can serve as a useful baseline, perhaps, but that&#039;s about it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
