<p>[QUOTE=&quot;V. Kurt Bellman, post: 1982152, member: 71723&quot;]Among PCGS, NGC, and me, I do know the toughest grader is me, as are most of the collectors I hang out with, too.</p><p><br /></p><p>I chose 2007 as my benchmark for a reason - it was around then the US Mint started monkeying with the technology they use to create working dies. It is now all digitally done with &quot;digital hubbing&quot; and directly engraved working dies made on CNC Swiss-made machinery. There basically should never be another bad die since about &#039;06 or &#039;07.</p><p><br /></p><p>Even the 2009 Lincoln Cent die varieties are &quot;digitization errors&quot;, not hubbing issues.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
