[QUOTE="BUncirculated, post: 1543641, member: 29581"]You didn't say this? [COLOR=#000000][/COLOR][COLOR=#000000] [/COLOR] And he goes on to say in that same post, that market grading is not used anymore, that value grading is the current standard. Like I said, if you haven't read Bower's book on Morgans, because in his book, he states the banks sent the bags of returned Morgans back to the Mint, who stored those bags in their own vaults. At on time the Mint in Philadelphia had so many bags of Morgans in their vault there was barely a foot path wide enough for workers to walk into the back of the vault when they did an annual audit on those bags. Eventually, the Mint had to get the Fed to store bags of the Morgans in their vaults because the Mint was filled to capacity and then some. It has everything to do the grading standards as well as value grading. Did you lose your place in the discussion somewhere? Yet PCGS mentions nothing in their standards for allowances for any kind of friction, but then again you already admitted that PCGS doesn't follow their own standards. Which places NGC in the same boat as PCGS. Not following their own standards. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Paul, we could go on and on and on for days, months, and probably years going back and forth on this. Bottom line is this, we each have our own opinion, just as the TPGs sell their opinions. We can agree here and now that on this we disagree, and probably always will.[/QUOTE]
