<p>[QUOTE="Morgandude11, post: 1576497, member: 37839"]I see noting nefarious in the + grade. It highlights a coin that is high in grade, and generally that correlates with eye appeal. Same goes for the NGC * grade--an eye appeal coin. People SHOULD expect to pay more for beautiful looking coins in grade--some folks read the greysheet and price guide as if every single coin should go for that price, and no more. That is ridiculous, as there are wide variations on a MS 64 coin for instance--from marginal and ugly, to breathtaking. Being cynical and looking it as a dealer markup in the making isn't being realistic to the fact that collectors pay more for coins that are more attractive to them.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Here's one of my + grade coins.
