[QUOTE="EyeEatWheaties, post: 1162881, member: 26972"]Thank you Mike! Well written and well thought out with supporting information/facts. The way posts should be written. To summarize off yours and others posts. I see 5 scenarios on a copper coin submitted for a downgrade review, that ends up also having a color issue: The way the grade guarantee is written, [B]1.[/B] if the submitted coin goes from 67 to 66 then they have to address the difference in the numerical grade value within the original color category - (the color suffixes were removed for clarity and because they are moot in that they are no longer warrantied) [B]2. [/B]It goes into a 67RB and no compensation is given since color is no longer warrantied/guaranteed [B]3. [/B] PCGS buys the coin to make it disappear. [B]4.[/B] Coin stays in the holder at customers request or coin still meets grade criteria for the label [B]5.[/B] They make up some new rule about how since copper color is no longer guaranteed, neither is the numerical grade. [B]Are there any other scenarios?[/B] [B]which is the most likely to happen? [/B] And why, for heavens sake, why do they not honor the published values from their price guide? That in itself, makes we wonder how many know that they come up with arbitrary numbers. Numbers that the average collector can't touch. Seems to me it would behoove them to give the customer the choice.[/QUOTE]
