<p>[QUOTE=&quot;krispy, post: 856421, member: 19065&quot;]I don&#039;t know what&#039;s so hard to understand for some folks but the the US Mint does not guarantee that it&#039;s coins leave their hands in a perfect grade. They have nothing to do with passing their coins through inspection prior to release based on the terms of a secondary collector market grading system. Coins are Minted to their quality controls of what is determined to be acceptable as Proof and Unc, they are inspected and handled to prevent damages and try to prevent any damaged products from leaving their facilities in such condition as &#039;mint errors&#039;. That a coin on the TPG label is judged a 68 vs a 69 means nothing to the quality of the product sold by the US Mint whether you are the first, second, third, fourth or further down the line customer to receive the exact same coin. You may think its wrong, but until you see it from the Mint&#039;s operational perspective you are the one who is wrong in your expectations and in so much shouldn&#039;t be buying coins from the Mint but rather certified to your expectations by a TPG.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
