<p>[QUOTE="eddiespin, post: 1882480, member: 4920"]I get it, Doug. That holds me, anyway, for now. But while one can rate the "market grades" of the TPGs as against the ANA's market grading standards, are those ANA standards any the more rational? I don't know that they are. Technical grading, grading relative to condition, is rational. "Eye appeal" grading? That's pretentious, at best. Thus, PCGS wants this toned coin that technical grades AU58 in it its plastic at MS64, who, based on eye appeal, is to question that as a "mistake?" It may be different, but how is it any the less legit?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
