<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Jaelus, post: 3292691, member: 46237&quot;]I&#039;ve encountered similar issues with capped bust quarter varieties. I saw PCGS slab what to me was an XF/AU as a VF35 because I knew that the variety was always found very weakly struck. In those cases you have to look elsewhere on the coin to grade it. Is everyone as knowledgeable about this coin as you are at the TPGs? No. They see wear on a weak strike, look at it for a few seconds and grade it like equivalent wear.</p><p><br /></p><p>Personally, I found I agreed with PCGS&#039; grading for capped busts a little better than NGC in general, but that NGC was on the money with grading varieties that had strike peculiarities, while PCGS was not.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
