Message:: [QUOTE="National dealer, post: 4262, member: 487"]Well both of you are right. The 3 majors are at least the majority of the time consistent to a point. Now I rountinely crack coins out of one holder and submit to another in the hope of a higher grade. Key dates seem to have a system all to themselves. Anyone remember the 33 St. Gaudens? How about the 04 Dollar that has moved up to AU. Now over the years I have learned to buy the coin and not the holder. This isn't always easy as I do a lot of sight unseen business with other dealers. There are monster deals out there in these "other" holders. One just has to look past the service name. I have been trying to add any help that I am able to get some of the ANA's suggestions across to graders and dealers. I believe it is a small step in the right direction. Ultimately it will take collectors and dealers working together to bring change. So Mr. GDJMSP when you are ready to make your personal campaign a little more serious, please let me know. It seems as if many of us are doing what we can as individuals, so we need to figure out a way to organize the efforts.[/QUOTE]
