<p>[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 1725101, member: 112"]The thing you have to realize is that very, very, few coins are submitted under the Secure Plus grading tier. And <u>only</u> the coins that are submitted under the Secure Plus tier are scanned and added to the database. All other coins submitted under all other grading tiers are NOT scanned nor are they added to the database.</p><p><br /></p><p>And as said, even the Secure Plus grading tier does not prevent a coin from being upgraded, or downgraded, or even no graded, at any point in the future if the coin is resubmitted. The sole purpose of the scanning and database is to prevent coins from being doctored with methods like laser technology and putty and then resubmitted with the hope of a higher grade.</p><p><br /></p><p>So any impact that the Secure Plus tier may have is very, very, minimal.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
