<p>[QUOTE=&quot;raider34, post: 716152, member: 16402&quot;]I wouldn&#039;t call it cynicism, it&#039;s simply grading. In order to grade any coin properly you have to identify all the &quot;problems&quot; with the coin. So, does that make you more critical of coins? Yes. But I don&#039;t believe that is a bad thing. In fact, I think it helps you find the best coins (within the grade you are looking for). </p><p><br /></p><p>So, imo being critical of coins, or &quot;cynical&quot; as you call it, is simply noticing the flaws of the coin, and correctly grading it. And, to not be critical, or &quot;cynical&quot; of a coin&#039;s flaws, is to ignore the facts. </p><p><br /></p><p>That is all based on the coin aspect of things. As for does grading coins correctly make you a cynical person in general? Absolutely not.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
