You consider them head games simply because they are contrary to your own beliefs. And rather than open your mind to the virtues of those who hold a dissenting opinion to your own, you cast them as crooks or lemmings. I understand your point very well, and I can even understand how a collector would support the "wear is wear" philosophy, right up until the point that its flaw is exposed in the form of roll/cabinet friction.</p><p><br /></p><p>I don't collect stamps, comic books, sports cards, or paper currency so I know very little about their grading systems. But for the sake of argument, lets say that you are correct and that in everyone of those hobbies, the "wear is wear" argument holds firm. So your point is that coins should be treated exactly the same as the other hobbies. And if coins were made from cardboard or paper, perhaps I would be inclined to agree with you.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
