<p>[QUOTE=&quot;CamaroDMD, post: 1933277, member: 5233&quot;]I personally don&#039;t care for the idea that key dates get a grade bump...but frankly it doesn&#039;t really matter.&nbsp; It doesn&#039;t really affect the value.&nbsp; It&#039;s still a supply and demand issue.&nbsp; If the normal thing to do is grade 1909-S VDB Lincolns with a touch of wear at MS62...then that will raise the supply of MS coins and drive the price down. </p><p><br /></p><p>I do believe however that the characteristics of a given date should be considered.&nbsp; You can&#039;t grade an 1880-S and an 1892-O Morgan the same.&nbsp; They are different coins...yes they are from the same series, but they are so different they can&#039;t be held to the same standards.&nbsp; The same thing is true about a 1909-S VDB and a 2009-D Lincoln.&nbsp; They aren&#039;t comparable.</p><p><br /></p><p>Now, like I said before...I&#039;d like to see a 1909-S VDB and a 1911-S held to the same standards.&nbsp; But, that&#039;s not what has happened but due to supply and demand the market corrects the price accordingly.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
