[QUOTE="charley, post: 26091362, member: 5372"]The one FACT revealed in this Thread (as has the majority of GTG Threads), is: It is not possible to accurately technical grade from images, and/or without the piece physically seen. And, most certainly MS/PF pieces. Then, there is the issue of the ability of the Graders to opine on the coin....their visual acuity/knowledge of the Series/basis of the opinion (after all, there are varying opinions of what basis to apply-technical/market) and experience. Perfection is not possible, for the simple reason that it is an opinion and that is all it really is. Sure, images can be compared to other images already graded. Was it technically graded? Truth in editing: added an "a" because I don't want to cause anybody to revel in spelling mistakes that change the thrust of the blahblah. It happens, so leave me alone.[/QUOTE]
