<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Lehigh96, post: 2755085, member: 15309&quot;]Why would I talk about what the TPGs did in the 1980&#039;s?&nbsp; Based on the holder, the coin was graded very recently and I was talking about the current practices of the TPG&#039;s and you know it.&nbsp; Furthermore, you know I have been collecting coins for for more than 10 years; your condemnation was nothing more than an attempted cheap shot.</p><p><br /></p><p>If you go back to my very first post in this thread, I admitted that I think the coin is overgraded even factoring in the eye appeal &amp; luster that can&#039;t be evaluated from the photos.&nbsp; AND aren&#039;t you the guy who has consistently &amp; repeatedly stated on this forum that it is impossible to grade a coin from photographs.&nbsp; Yet here we have a coin graded MS67+ by NGC and verified as an MS67 by CAC, but because Doug and his cronies on Cointalk saw some photos, the coin is overgraded by 3 points.&nbsp; Your hubris never ceases to amaze me.</p><p><br /></p><p>I have no problem criticizing the TPGs and there have been many times when I have said publicly that they are wrong.&nbsp; But I have a problem declaring them wrong when I have never actually seen the damn coin!!!!&nbsp; And so should you![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
