<p>[QUOTE=&quot;jessash1976, post: 2783987, member: 17086&quot;]Your not being unkind, everyone has an opinion. And just to put my last two cents in, I just think that grades have been inflated for the last 6-10 years from these graders. They are trying to find ways to keep the hobby interesting and I get it. But this shouldn&#039;t be done at this cost. If you really think about what makes a coin a 67,68,69 or even 70 , it takes &quot;perfect coins&quot; to do this according the standards set up. A 67 is a great coin. Barely any marks , good fields and great luster. Then you get to 68. I mean come on we can&#039;t lower our standards when it comes to grading. we might as well just get rid of the grading system if we are going to throw those numbers around. If you think about it, just about every silver eagle that is minted can be graded a 68 or better. We have better tech. To do so. Back then they didn&#039;t. And that&nbsp;&nbsp; A coin from 1880 with marks like I have stated can get the same grade is crazy.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
