<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Lehigh96, post: 493887, member: 15309&quot;]For the record Doug, I wasn&#039;t ragging on you, I just don&#039;t understand why coins from different mints and years can&#039;t be compared with each other.</p><p><br /></p><p>And as I recall, that question was never really answered IMO.&nbsp; I am a result oriented person.&nbsp; I don&#039;t care if the mint used a lower striking pressure or different die spacing.&nbsp; I care about the end result of the quality of coins they produced.&nbsp; If they use a striking pressure too low in Denver and the coins are not as well struck as they are in Philly, then guess what, they should get lower graded coins for not performing to the same quality level as Philly.&nbsp; Why should we give them a pass by saying, they were all poorly struck and we shall apply a bell curve so that we can have a crappy weak strike MS66.</p><p><br /></p><p>I am not advocating a whole new grading system, just stricter application of the present one.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
