<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Troodon, post: 1585911, member: 4626&quot;]This is a very common practice due to how much more buyers are willing to pay for coins that grade PF-70.&nbsp; They&#039;ll submit 100&#039;s, even 1000&#039;s, hoping for that grade, knowing that if a few make it, it will more than cover the cost of those that don&#039;t, based on the additional amount they can sell the 70&#039;s for.&nbsp; They&#039;ll usually tell the TPG not to bother slabbing anything that doesn&#039;t make at least 69 (sometimes 70 if they&#039;re really picky); that saves them nothing on the grading, but does save them on the return shipping at least, and they&#039;re more convenient to sell and store at least.&nbsp; The ones that don&#039;t make the cut they&#039;ll sometimes sell raw, or yes quite often even by the roll, especially if they&#039;re silver.</p><p><br /></p><p>To maximize profit they usually examine them before submitting, trying to cherry pick out any that look like they can go 70.&nbsp; Kind of a gamble as the TPGs can be finicky and are not perfectly consistent, but again only a handfull need to make 70 for it all to be worth it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
