[QUOTE="Troodon, post: 444297, member: 4626"]And ultimately that's what it comes down to... if there isn't a foolproof way to tell the difference between a 69 and 70... it it can't be said with 100% reliability that one coin is 69 and another is 70... than how can it possibly be worth paying more for a 70 instead of a 69?

If a difference can not be reliably determined... then in a practical sense, it may as well not exist. And a practically non-existant difference certaintly isn't worth paying a premium for. In all essence it's just a scam by the TPG's to outright lie to people that a grade can be objectively determined and that their expert graders are the best at doing it... and they'll do it for you, for a price of course. A grade is just an opinion, and all opinions are purely subjective, by definition. Like I say in my signature... boycott ALL the TPGs and end this nonsense.[/QUOTE]
