<p>[QUOTE=&quot;mikenoodle, post: 292241, member: 307&quot;]and if I may... this is exactly what I was talking about, Doug. I think grading is exactly that, grading. What I think is that people sometimes equate grade to value, and that&#039;s just not true. As I said in the other thread, the grade of a coin is what it is. Either the horn is there, or it isn&#039;t. And just because it&#039;s a rare date, the horn isn&#039;t suddenly not as important to the coin&#039;s grade as it would be on a common date. </p><p><br /></p><p>Value is a different story entirely. Value of a coin is based not only on the technical grade, but the eye appeal, the rarity and even the desirability of pedigree or other factors, but none of those factors should affect it&#039;s technical grade.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
