<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 92122, member: 112&quot;]Very true - but who is it that will decide that this color in this specific spot on a coin means this and that color in the very same spot means something else ? Do you see what I mean ? No matter how you go about it, at some point subjectivity is the defining factor.</p><p><br /></p><p>Computer grading of coins has been tried several times - and failed for the very reason I describe above. For there is just no way to remove subjectivity from coin grading - even with a computer. For a computer can only do what somebody programs it to do. And who decides what that is ?</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>You are quite correct, to a degree. But not everybody is satisfied. There are a great many out there who would like to see changes and reform within the grading system - among them, me. I have long written about the subject and espoused the benefits such reform would bring to the hobby.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
