<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 1066749, member: 26302&quot;]Kinda getting back to the old adage that every coin is unique, no? Like you say Baha I do not begrudge anyone buying a 16d dime wanting assurance it is authentic. What I really dislike is TPG&#039;ers setting their own grading scales, knowingly grading worn coins as MS61 or 62&#039;s, (I have seen a 63 I would have sworn was circulated last month), and generally just running roughshod over any industry standards, (think ANA grading standards). Collectors keep buying their products, though, so US collectors only have themselves to blame. Myself, I just bought a couple of NGC ancients I immediately bandsawed. The only 2 ancient slabs I own are slabs misattributing dates and EMPEROR on the coin, just to remind me how &quot;good&quot; slabbing is. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> Btw, they are AU as well, even better since no ancient coin is EVER graded AU.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
