[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 494843, member: 112"]Paul it has nothing to do my respect factor or anything else. Nobody here pays one bit more attention to what I say just because it's me saying it. And if they do, they shouldn't. My point is this - you know dang good and well that the the TPG's can and do over-grade coins based on their own standards - yes or no ? Now if you answer that yes, then you're gonna have hard time convincing me that they didn't screw up on this coin. I have seen too many of them that had booming luster, great eye appeal, very few marks, but had a weak strike for the date/mint and the coins were not over-graded, to believe that this coin is anything but a mistake. Now, admittedly that is my opinion. You have your opinion. We obviously disagree. I'm OK with that.
