<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 3314145, member: 112&quot;]LOL !&nbsp; Ya know, I don&#039;t even think it&#039;s possible that you in any way misunderstood what I said. And I did not in any way say anything even remotely related to what you just said !</p><p><br /></p><p>Take the large cents that I mentioned. The vast majority of them are corroded, they plainly show pitting, and yet they are given clean grades. Any other common coin, and I don&#039;t care what denomination or metal is it made of, if it is corroded and shows pitting as result of that corrosion, it WILL NOT be given a clean grade. </p><p><br /></p><p>That&#039;s grading coins differently !</p><p><br /></p><p>If coins come from a famous collection, they have a famous pedigree in other words, they are consistently and across the board given higher grades than other examples of the same exact same coins are given. And this happens time after time with ever famous collection.</p><p><br /></p><p>That is grading coins differently !</p><p><br /></p><p>If two different Saints are sent in, one is very valuable/expensive, the other common, and they are both equal in all respects. The common date could easily be graded 65, but the very valuable coin will only be graded 64.</p><p><br /></p><p>That is grading coins differently !</p><p><br /></p><p>If two different coins of any denomination, one a scarce and desirable variety but not expensive and the other a common date/mint (same type) are sent in, and both are equal in all respects, the scarce variety will be graded higher than the common coin will be.</p><p><br /></p><p>That is grading coins differently !</p><p><br /></p><p>Now I&#039;m reasonably certain you&#039;re going to argue and dispute all of that too, but pretty much everybody on the planet involved with coins knows it&#039;s true.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
