You cannot say that just because it didn&#039;t affect the grade much on coin A that it will not affect the grade much on coin B.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Again, this is what I was talking about before. Just because die wear on a coin A keeps a coin from grading at a certain level, that does not mean that it will keep coin B from grading at that same level. And there are varying degrees of die wear. You absolutely have to look &amp; grade each coin as an individual ! (edit - this is why trying to learn to grade coins based on what see on other graded coins is a problem)</p><p><br /></p><p>Also realize this - I am giving you information based on long standing and recognized grading standards and techniques (so that you might learn to grade properly) - which is not necessarily what the TPGs use today.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
