Its sad to think preying on the inconsistencies of human graders and authenticators is the basis for a collection, but in fact the very fact a coin is in a slab at X grade nowadays seems to many the only thing that matters. If you dispute the plastic in any way you are just &quot;old fashioned, ignorant, and not with the times&quot;. </p><p><br /></p><p>I wear my old fashionedness in coin collecting as a badge of honor, but I know I am not in the majority any longer.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
