[QUOTE="imrich, post: 3229372, member: 22331"]After receiving direct suggestions to discontinue my ~$10000 minimum value lot submissions to the premier TPG by well established respected dealers, I submitted one 5 coin last lot of previously slabbed high value Liberty Double Eagles. One coin had been previously labeled "cleaned", to which I didn't agree. It came back with a straight one grade higher. A MS64 with virtually flawless uniform luster fields came back UNC DETAILS CLEANED. A MS63 with beautiful devices, minimal field chatter, was graded AU 58. A MS62 PL was graded MS61. A MS61 was graded AU 58. The "standards" are seemingly being altered, which can probably only be established by adjudication. I will resubmit the reduced grade coins, unslabbed, to establish possible lack of uniform grading standards. 5 out of 5 inconsistencies isn't believed a "fluke". This is a stated 9 figure or greater value business, if high value coins can't be consistently graded by a firm, it may be time for changes. JMHO[/QUOTE]
