<p>[QUOTE=&quot;physics-fan3.14, post: 8723751, member: 19165&quot;]There are a lot of measurement scales that had good ideas, made a big impact, became super popular, and then when people thought a bit more about it realized it made no flippin&#039; sense. </p><p><br /></p><p>I mean, how about the English system of measurement, based on the size of the king&#039;s foot? Seems like a system based on multiples of 100 would make a lot more sense! </p><p><br /></p><p>And that&#039;s kinda why I like the 10 point scale (or 100) for grading coins. It&#039;s basically the metric system! </p><p><br /></p><p>(also, coincidentally, probably why the US coin market has fought so hard against it.... metric? pfffft. That&#039;s some European nonsense right there!)[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
