<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Lehigh96, post: 950110, member: 15309&quot;]First, can you please stop tying all of your posts in bold.&nbsp; It makes them very hard to read.&nbsp; Secondly, you took my quote out of context.&nbsp; You claimed that there is no difference between and MS63 and MS65 Morgan Dollars.&nbsp; I am telling you without a doubt that I will never grade an MS63 Morgan as an MS65 or vice versa.&nbsp; The difference between 2 grades apart is obvious.&nbsp; When you get down to single grade disparities or grades within a grade, it becomes more difficult.&nbsp; I could very easily see some people grading a few of the Morgans posted in this thread MS65 and I could see some grading the last one MS67.&nbsp; I can&#039;t see anyone grading these MS66&#039;s as MS64 or MS68.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>I am glad you have proven your theory many times with dealers.&nbsp; However, you have not proven anything here.&nbsp; Furthermore, all your experiment proves is that most dealers don&#039;t have very good grading skills and will misgrade their coins for sale more often than not.&nbsp; This fact bolsters the need for the TPG&#039;s and a grade assigned by a third party.&nbsp; It seems that you want to return to the days when only MS60 and MS65 grades existed, there were no TPGs, and unscrupulous dealers routinely fleeced their customers by marking an inferior coin MS65 and selling it at a ridiculous price.&nbsp; You act as if a coin that is graded MS64 by PCGS will not sell for MS64 for money simply because three dealers think the coin is MS63, 5 think it is MS64, and 2 think it is MS65.&nbsp; If you had conducted your experiment with professional graders from NGC and PCGS and succeeded, then I would be impressed</p><p><br /></p><p>I will admit that Saints are much harder to grade than most series and that I completely understand your frustration with grading inconsistency in that series.&nbsp; However, telling us that the price disparity between common date Saints can buy 100 MS63 Morgan Dollars has no bearing on any part of this conversation and is sensationalistic in nature.&nbsp; Nice trick though![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
