<p>[QUOTE=&quot;chip, post: 891310, member: 19122&quot;]I brought up the rear, but I am not too down about it, I have been interested in coins for about a year now, I seemed to do better by not using my photograde book, which was my first grading book, well actually my second one since I started by using my fathers old 1965 red book, I seemed to do better using the ana official grading standards book.</p><p><br /></p><p>That seems counterintuitive to me, that the book with pictures that are worse, and in black and white seemed to help my skills somewhat.</p><p><br /></p><p>I also think that another area where my inexperience showed was that I am totally unfamiliar with how the different grading companies define their grades, that they are consistent is evident in the more experienced graders knowing&nbsp; what those different tpgs look for.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
