<p>[QUOTE=&quot;TheFinn, post: 3036778, member: 90102&quot;]I have a friend that has been a dealer for 35+ years and is a former ANA President.&nbsp; He asked me what percentage of coin dealers knew how to grade, and I said 10%.&nbsp; He said that was probably pretty accurate nowadays unfortunately.&nbsp; I have purchased coins in lower-tier TPG slabs for more than Grey Sheet for the grade listed (they think they should be 1/2 of the listing according to the GS).&nbsp; I tell them I bought the coin, not the plastic, and they are amazed when I get it back from one of the big two in a higher grade than was listed on the slab.&nbsp; I bought the coin.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
