[QUOTE="Silver Striker, post: 155022, member: 1745"][url]http://www.precisioncoingrading.com/[/url] WOW! Here's a service that re-examines the grades assigned by all the major grading services and assigns a additional point grade between .0 and .9. Using this service will essentially double your original grading/encapsulating fees. It would be cheaper just to break out your slabbed coin and resubmit.

If it's an ICG coin and we all understand how they may be a little lax with their grades. I suppose that he will assume their grading standards and point grade accordingly to ICG standards. What a can of worms here. OK then what about under graded coins? I am assuming that his service makes an assumption that the coin is already graded super accurately since his service will only assessing a grade from .0 to .9 above the current assigned MS grade (or PR, AU, etc.) I as a novice cannot understand any need for this service or the idea behind it by re-examining the majority of all the TPG companies as we all know they have their own differing standards of grading. The service and fees are IMHO, questionable.[/QUOTE]
