<p>[QUOTE=&quot;spock1k, post: 401595, member: 7043&quot;]change the label and say sorry. grading indian coins is not a joke its a tough act half the languages in krause (language number section) are indian more than 12 different kind of scripts there is hardly any written documentation anywhere research is lacking they dont know what is wear and what is light strike they have no clue about more than half the die varieities if it cant be found in krause or pridmore you are SOL and the less we talk about non english coinage the better we will be.&nbsp; it seems i will have to write a book myself.&nbsp; just the other day i found a different variety of 1840 1/4th rupee 7 berries no lettering if i take that to a TPG they will send it back. many a times i have got coins back from both PCGS/NGC saying unlisted in Krause so we cant grade.&nbsp; TPG grading for indian coins is a joke just the the othe day i received some 64RD and 65RD from PCGS and fell off my chair if those are 64 and 65&#039;s then there should be a grade called 71 sorry to go on and on but i am really unhappy about the state of the coins from india and how parts of a heritage are being lost/destroyed everyday.&nbsp; the only reason i prefer PCGS is at least i dont see a lot of mislabeling on their holders and counterfeits in them <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie3" alt=":(" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>the main reason for this that the indian coin market here was not hot and hardly anyone submitted coins to any TPG we have seen a lot of activity in the last 2 years hopefully we will get a bunch of TPG&#039;s that are very strong in grading indian coins until that happens dont take the word of the TPG&nbsp; or the slab know your coins.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>All please note the above rant is for coins from India only.&nbsp; I would love to get the service thatthe top tier TPG&#039;s provide for us coins even with all their shortcomings and flaws.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
