[QUOTE="Marshall, post: 8143362, member: 21705"]I just do not understand the money involved with the TPG grading lottery. I know it's big bucks, but if I can't tell the difference, I don't care what it says on the plastic. Love the Obverse, but the Reverse probably was no better than a 62 when minted. I have no problem whatsoever with MS 62 being a top dog on a series with problems getting a strong strike. The top dogs should not automatically get a 67 or 68 plus just because they are top dogs. But don't listen to me for financial advice. It wouldn't work out well for you. Just because there are 11 MS grades, doesn't mean there needs to be anything close to a normal distribution. In my delusional world, the price would be the same, but the grading would be technical, not financial and weak strikes would top out no higher than MS65, even if otherwise perfect.[/QUOTE]
