[QUOTE="afantiques, post: 2041687, member: 71234"]That's a brilliant plan. Micro grading coins fresh from the factory, with no real expertise or experience needed, to perform a useless task with no question of authenticity to worry about, just a new layer of quality control for the mint. And best of all, funded by the sort of obsessives most likely to play their MS (or BS) lottery in a futile quest for ever higher numbers so the other obsessives can trade the imaginary market of pseudo rarity in coins that they can buy unmediated by these parasites for a few dollars or less. What ever happened to coin collecting? What ever happened to people using their own skill and judgement to collect coins with a bit of history to them? PS Just read the post above and sheesh, they take parasitic 'services' to what is either a higher or much lower level, depending on how you look at it. Anyone subscribing to this would be on my mailing list for Brooklyn Bridge lottery tickets and million dollar from Nigeria offers at once, since they will clearly fall for anything.[/QUOTE]
