[QUOTE="coinman0456, post: 1072652, member: 18177"]He cites an example of an 1842 O Quarter Eagle, which was catalogued as part of the Eliasberg collection in 1982 as a VF-30. The same coin was slabbed in an NGC holder and sold in 2008 as an AU-55! I know there was some loosening of standards over time, but had no idea it was so severe. As was stated in another thread, " so loose, it's a joke " .[/QUOTE]
