[QUOTE="bzcollektor, post: 159298, member: 3241"]Hey SapN!!! Maybe I have the no name TPG`s mixed up. It really doesn`t matter, as they are no name TPG`s. Way too many rookie, and even mid level collectors, put too much weight on TPG grades. It seems that they equate ANY TPG grade with the highest book values in the Red Book, Or Coin Universe. Everyone that has more than $10 worth of coins, and comes to Coin Talk to talk about their coins needs to learn how to grade. TPG`s do have their place in high end items. Fact of Life nowadays. These fake TPG`s hurt the newbies. I can tell stories about the major TPG`s. I have a higher end PCGS MS63 Morgan, that is barely an MS61. I have an ANACS MS62PL that looks way better than most PCGS or NGC MS63 and some 64`s that I own. Point is, many Major TPG`s don`t always get it right. The minors seldom do. I like to educate the newbies that TPG is important nowadays, BUT, even the big guys get it wrong, and these no-names are almost always wishful thinking, or an outright scam.[/QUOTE]
