I really need clarification on this as it will change my argument completely. </font></font></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><font face="Times New Roman"><font size="3">And lets not forget that Bill Sharmhart also saw this coin in hand and called it high end for the grade. If the coin was not CAC certified then one can argue from a photo that this coin could be over graded as it is their opinion VS my opinion. </font></font></p><p><font face="Times New Roman"><font size="3">However when you put CAC into the mix, then most the doubt is takent out of the equation. </font></font></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><font face="Times New Roman"><font size="3">The whole point of grading from a photo is basically a best guess . I could understand if someone were to come back with MS 62 on this coin based on a photo. </font></font></p><p><font face="Times New Roman"><font size="3">But Au 53 ??? My photo skills are intermediate at best but they are good enough that it should be obvious that this coin is far better then AU .</font></font>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
