<p>[QUOTE="C G Memminger, post: 2115546, member: 71506"]I agree with you...I think. I have Not observed tougher grading of mid-MS grade 79-81S Morgans. Quite the opposite. In my experience submitting a few hundred Morgans to P and N, and looking a few thousand others...it is my observation that the toughest grading occurs on the cusp of a big jump in value. </p><p><br /></p><p>I can semi-corroborate this statement (semi, because I have never met any graders or former graders from P or N). I know a former grader from ANACS. Coins which were on the edge of a jump will get a second look. Coins which are not on such an edge do not get the extra attention. Time is money, and these guys look at 200+ coins in a day. This "edge" can happen on the MS grade, but also on the PL and DPL decisions. And I would intuit that N would give a second look at a coin granted the ever-desirable STAR.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
