<p>[QUOTE=&quot;j0nnyjo, post: 446912, member: 15364&quot;]Hi all,</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>This is a very general question that I have read a bit about in different settings...but I just wanted to get your opinions on a few different issues regarding TPG grading at the present time - I know some of us may have had more experience with this than others:</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>1) To what extent would you consider TPG grades &quot;reliable&quot; for mid range mint state (63-65) Peace Dollars, Morgans, Early Commems, and WL Halves in the hypothetical sense that you could repeatedly &quot;crack&quot; the coin out of its slab and &quot;reliabliy&quot; receive the same grade multiple times from the same TPG.&nbsp; (these are just what I mainly collect - of course any general opinions / opinons on other series and/or grades would be great)</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>2) Are PCGS and NGC grades specifically &quot;reliably&quot; consistent for the above-mentioned coins or is one service consistently tougher/more lenient to any extent for any particular series that you&#039;ve noticed (or in general)?</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>3) Has grading from TPGs been &quot;reliably&quot; consistent over the past year, 2 years, 3 years, etc. (I&#039;m aware that grading was of course very tough in the very early days of rattler holders and such, but I&#039;m curious as to whether you&#039;ve noticed variability more recently or if things have essentially &quot;leveled off&quot;).</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>If anyone has any thoughts/opinions/comments on any of the above (or any related issue), I&#039;d love to hear them.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Thanks for reading. :thumb:[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
