<p>[QUOTE="mikem2000, post: 2016142, member: 30574"]But what if a newer grading system is an improvement??? Should we be stuck the older inferior system just to maintain standards or should we adapt so we can utilize the advantages of the newer one?</p><p><br /></p><p>For example I really like the so called looser standards of the TPG's than the grading system that you adhear to. For MS coins I am sure over 98% of them, in your opinion would go in a 64 holder or lower. That it a lot of coins for the first 5 MS grade, leaving a whopping 6 more grades for the remaining 2%. What that does, is make a lot variability for say a 64 coin. If you use the upper grades more liberally, there are less 64 coins, leaving less variability within the grade. So, what in your opinion, was a REALLY nice 64, now goes in a 66 holder and everyone knows what we are talking about. Seems a bit better to me.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
