<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GoldFinger1969, post: 3973878, member: 73489&quot;]Great post, Doug....but I had NEVER heard of deliberately trying for a LOWER grade which is what the 1927-D situation involved. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie100" alt=":wideyed:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>And I would think anybody buying one of those 7 (?) coins is such a savvy and discerning buyer that you could never crack them out of a holder and hope someone will overestimate the grade.&nbsp; I doubt you could even get that with a more populous year/mint, such as the 1907 High Relief Saints.</p><p><br /></p><p>When you fork over 5-figures for a coin, I would think most people are going to be pretty good at grading.&nbsp; Could someone take out an AU-58 or MS61 HR Saint and tell somebody it&#039;s a potential MS-66 or MS-65, MS-64 at worst ?&nbsp; I guess so....but most people forking over that amount of $$$ will be able to tell the difference.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
