<p>[QUOTE="Mac McDonald, post: 7807632, member: 117420"]What's so easy/obvious about arriving at 95% red or brown...??? One says it is, the other says it isn't..."it's less...only 90%...or 85%," etc., etc...and there's that "arbitrary" and "interpretation" thing again, so we're back to square one. Nothing is "easy"...but a good, well-written and custom (for each coin type, et al) computer program and software for scanning, evaluating and grading coins would help considerably in turning night into day. We have all the technology needed and more...just need to take the BIG money factors away from the TPGs and high-roller coin gurus and it would happen...if we just lived in a more perfect union where the coin is the real king it should be in numismatics.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
