<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Bob Evancho, post: 3299062, member: 84595&quot;]11 Numerical GRADES of Uncirculated but only MS-70 is perfect.&nbsp; Like I said in previous posts, 1 thru 69 should all be DETAILS GRADE and the CONDITION mentioned that puts it under a Perfect MS-70.&nbsp; </p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; Does everyone on this thread agree with Buy the Coin and not the HOLDER?&nbsp; Does everyone on this thread agree with BUY the Book before you Buy the coin?</p><p>Does everyone on this Thread agree with BUY a GRADING GUIDE Book or two.&nbsp; I would suggest to start out with an old ANA Grading Guide Book and Buy a second or many and study them all.&nbsp; I even have Jason Poe&#039;s book.&nbsp; Read and study, you won&#039;t get as confused as the TPG&#039;s who have changed their standards over the years.&nbsp; BUY a coin based on your knowledge and its EYE Appeal.</p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; There is a difference between numerical GRADE and CONDITION.&nbsp; Go to page 4 of this thread and on the top of the page right click on the MS-62 Morgan Dollar.&nbsp; Click to open in a new tab. When that page opens, click anywhere on the coin to expand it.&nbsp; Now go to my response and Right click on the Photo of my coin.&nbsp; Again click to open in a new tab.&nbsp; Do this for both obverse and reverse.&nbsp; Then click anywhere on the coin to expand the coin to see it better.&nbsp; PCGS MS-62 Morgan has more obverse marks and more reverse marks than my AU-58 Details coin.&nbsp; Mine has a CONDITION of spot on rim.&nbsp; But PCGS coin has more distracting marks on the obverse and 5 or more black spots on the reverse.&nbsp; Was SEGS too strict on my coin?&nbsp; Did PCGS slide contamination on their coin?&nbsp; This is where EYE APPEAL comes in and knowledge of GRADING and knowledge of CONDITION issues.&nbsp; </p><p>Does everyone on this thread agree that SEGS has the best, strongest holder for protecting a coin?&nbsp; My opinion is all coins from 1 to 69 should be Details GRADED identifying their CONDITION Problem.&nbsp; Wait till the BIG TPG&#039;s go to ++ or triple AAA.&nbsp; I look forward to the day there is a computer program that will GRADE and CONDITION a coin looking through its own microscopic eye with Robots then placing the coin in an unbreakable holder with description of Details GRADE and CONDITION Issue.&nbsp; Only one GRADE would have no CONDITION Issue and be a perfect MS-70. Then there will be only ONE Standard and no need for subjective, suggestive GRADING TPG services.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
