<p>[QUOTE=&quot;WoodyWW, post: 1444454, member: 26001&quot;]First off, I just expressed some <i>opinions</i> about some diff. coins that I own, &amp; also ones that I had graded by PCGS. You totally mis-characterized--&amp; got wrong--almost everything I said. As far as:</p><p><br /></p><p><i>&quot;but your contention is that they (TPG&#039;s) are wrong about all of your coins.&quot;</i>--I <b>never </b>said that. I don&#039;t know how you get that. What I said was, that I thought PCGS totally mis-graded 2 of the coins I submitted--not all 8. One of the reasons I believe that is that I compared them to PCGS coins of the same series, that I think are <i>fairly</i> graded. In fact, I think all of the PCGS coins that I bought (pre-slabbed, as it were) are <i>fairly</i> graded, or I wouldn&#039;t have bought them. </p><p><br /></p><p>What is your contention? That PCGS never gets it wrong? And anyone who disagrees with any of their grading is a clueless grader, who&#039;s wearing &quot;rose colored glasses&quot;? I happen to&nbsp; agree with GDJMSP:</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;<i>&quot;One of the problems PCGS is known for is that they can be very&nbsp; inconsistent at times. Those same two coins you mentioned, if&nbsp; resubmitted could easily grade as you expected they would. Or, they&nbsp; might not. You never know with them.&quot; </i></p><p><i><br /></i></p><p><i></i>The 2 NGC slabbed coins I own: what I<i> should&#039;ve </i>said is that I&nbsp; think they&#039;re <i>conservatively</i> graded, probably more so than the PCGS coins I own. One might be worthy of re-submitting IMO, but you think that&#039;s just my &quot;rose colored glasses&quot;. In reality, It&#039;s the result of spending lots &amp; lots of time looking at dozens of Texas commem. halves, &amp; a 1926 Sesqui gold 2 1/2 $, both PCGS &amp; NCG. These were the nicest ones I could find--at a fair price-- after a lot of effort, to me that&#039;s called &quot;cherry picking&quot;, to you &quot;rose colored glasses&quot;.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>The PCGS coins I bought already slabbed--again, I think are <i>fairly</i> graded, nice coins, that&#039;s why I bought them, after looking at many, many coins. So again, your contention that &quot;I think that TPG&#039;s are wrong about all of my coins&quot; is absurd. </p><p>&nbsp; </p><p>At least--before you label someone as a clueless, newbie grader with no &quot;grading skills&quot;--could you take the time to read what they actually said, &amp; get your <i>&quot;indisputable facts&quot;</i> straight? Thank you.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p style="text-align: left"><span style="color: #000000"> </span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="color: #000000"><br /></span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><br /></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="color: #000000"><br /></span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="color: #000000"><br /></span></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p style="text-align: left"><span style="color: #000000"><br /></span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="color: #000000"><br /></span></p><p>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
