The &quot;Top Tier&quot; TPG today seemingly have few constraints: in placing any grade on a coin, developing new standards without oversight, or allowing independent equitable mechanism for damage redress. They appear to have been given a Carte Blanche position by the collecting public who have unquestionably allowed the existing grading system to be destroyed by new grades within the existing grades, and establishment of seemingly diminished standards, while paying an increased premium. I suspect this will continue until the Internet Explorer Numismatic counterparts are replaced by a Firefox like nemesis, or independent adjudication is generated. Bah! Bah! We appear to bleat and follow acceptingly. I personally own too many pieces of certified Numismatic tripe to accept the premise that only a few may dictate the &quot;industry&quot; standards, and should be followed without reasoned objective review.</font></p><p><font face="Arial Black">&nbsp;</font>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
