<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Eduard, post: 882888, member: 8959&quot;]I believe I have read somewhere that due to the conditions and equipment with which they were minted, liberty seated Carson City coins are graded differently than the Philadelphia issues. Is this correct?&nbsp;&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>One good example would be this 1872 CC quarter being offered by a Capped Bust and Liberty Seated specialist. It is graded PCGS F15.&nbsp; This seems somewhat optimistic. From my experience, I would grade it VG10 at best.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>For comparison, I am attaching pictures of my 1872 CC, which I bought over 20 years ago as VG10. I grade both specimens similarly.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Is this grade-flation, or have the grading standards for CC coinage specifically changed over the years?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
