<p>[QUOTE="Just Carl, post: 800321, member: 4552"]Your problem is you think that if someone says they are a grading service, they really know what they are saying. Try to remember that a TPGS is just a pile of people doing a job and many may know less than you think. For all we know some may just be the kids of people already working there. Might already be outsourced to India you know. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p>As an example, a dealer I know that has been a dealer for longer than most have been alive purchased a 1916D Mercury Dime, sent it in to a TPGS and had it sent back as a fake.

[QUOTE="Just Carl, post: 800321, member: 4552"]Your problem is you think that if someone says they are a grading service, they really know what they are saying. Try to remember that a TPGS is just a pile of people doing a job and many may know less than you think. For all we know some may just be the kids of people already working there. Might already be outsourced to India you know. :D As an example, a dealer I know that has been a dealer for longer than most have been alive purchased a 1916D Mercury Dime, sent it in to a TPGS and had it sent back as a fake. He then resent it to a different TPGS and it came back graded and in a slab.
