<p>[QUOTE="desertgem, post: 964560, member: 15199"]I agree with Doug's basic concept~ the idea that someone can copy identifying numbers of coins or stamps is wrong. Scott publishing has, in general, been mute on individual use, such as in single sales or advertising. Where they get tough is on publications and software. I was in that field more strongly years ago, so I am not familiar with any recent events. Since Scott did develop the numbering system in reference to specific stamps, I can understand their logic, but still think it is inconsistent and wrong in general. What if the Sheldon grading system P-01 through MS-70 was copyrighted, or is it ? <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Now if Doug was to copyright the Doug's Grading system from, "Downright awful-AAA to almost a good coin-ZZZ" he might make some money <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
