<p>[QUOTE=&quot;V. Kurt Bellman, post: 1982177, member: 71723&quot;]Two things - anyone can see this without whipping out pop reports from PCGS. The Pro edition of the Red Book has listings of average grade for both services put together. When you see an average like 69.2, it&#039;s pretty clear 70&#039;s outnumber &lt;69, so you do make a perfectly good qualitative argument.</p><p><br /></p><p>The other is - and I mean this - (we agree completely on the circ. quality stuff BTW, even though those S quarters are amazing) - I have never personally seen any coin post-2007 numismatic (proof and individual BU commem) coin that was under a 69. I know a few might exist, but I&#039;ve never actually looked at one. I&#039;d be curious.</p><p><br /></p><p>These clad Kennedy high reliefs are quite the odd ducks - neither fully circ. quality nor the usual BU specialty stuff. And their grade profile reveals such.</p><p><br /></p><p>The other way we agree is that, except for one JFK clad set at Chicago, I can&#039;t ever remember breaking up OGP to have a modern slabbed. I have submitted singles that I got that way, more to give them a robust holder for the long run&nbsp; than for the grade per se. Something about a proof coin variety in a cardboard 2x2 that just makes me uneasy.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
