<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 31043, member: 112&quot;]They do give you the information, at least NGC and PCGS do - you just have know where to get it. It can be found in their grading books. </p><p><br /></p><p>But that&#039;s not what you are referring to, I know that. You are referring to having additional information placed on each slab that list which specific characteristics caused this given coin to be assigned the grade it has.</p><p><br /></p><p>Personally - I have never seen a need for such information to be on a slab. That&#039;s because I already know which characteristics caused the coin to be given the grade assigned to it. That&#039;s something that comes with experience and something that we all have to learn. </p><p><br /></p><p>There&#039;s only so much room on a slab label - it is not practical to place such info as you wish to see on a slab label. And for the most part - it would only tend to confuse most people as they tried to decipher exactly what it meant. For to string a set of numbers and/or letters together such as WS-SL-SO-RD ( weak strike - strong luster - scratched obverse - rim ding ) and possibly more would be confusing indeed. And of course you&#039;d have to learn what all the different letters and numbers meant for each different grading company. For they certainly wouldn&#039;t all use the same ones.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
