<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Marshall, post: 1720617, member: 21705&quot;]By the way, the coin Conder showed is the FINEST available to collectors because the finest known (~VF30) is permanently impounded in the ANS collection. Also, we are using EAC grading. TPGs have inflated grading over the years on the high end coins and undergraded many coins with strike issues on the low end.</p><p><br /></p><p>Here is a link to Jon Boka&#039;s 1794 set and you will see a presentation of cents the way they should be shown in my opinion. His S-18a is probably tied for third finest known and second finest available. You will also notice that while most of them are higher grade, a few of them are not, simply because the best known are in only found in lower grades.</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.1794largecents.com/1794/collection.htm" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.1794largecents.com/1794/collection.htm" rel="nofollow">http://www.1794largecents.com/1794/collection.htm</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
