<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ddddd, post: 7853189, member: 22377&quot;]I can get behind the ideas you mention. I&#039;ve somewhat shifted my position over the years as I do think there is a benefit to &quot;reranking&quot; certain coins (like the almost flawless 58s being rewarded over the beat up 60s). </p><p><br /></p><p>Implementing this new grading scale using quality would be where I think issues would arise. The TPGs would definitely be happy since many coins would be resubmitted. However, would more collectors drop out due to the frustration of believing they need to regrade their coins? Also, what would happen with all the old MS 60 and higher coins that would drop grades in the new system? There would certainly not be many who would send those coins back in. Would the TPGs buy those coins back or offer some compensation to help take them off the market? </p><p><br /></p><p>Overall, is the problem serious enough in the current environment that we would want to reinvent the whole system? I get the argument that it is hard to explain to newer entrants (and some long timers as well) that a 58 can be priced above a 63, but don&#039;t enough of us understand it already (and the newer collectors eventually learn it too)? Otherwise, we would not have the auction results where 58s already sell for more than some 60-63s.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
