<p>[QUOTE="LibertyBell, post: 162393, member: 6142"]Did you ever see the way they grade those coins? I saw a video clip one time from either NGC or PCGS (I forget which one now). The grader was flying through the coins at lightning speed. I know that each grader goes through several hundred coins per day. That is why I have far more faith in myself or a reputable dealer when it comes to grading. I know that lots of you folks think that because they are practiced, they are accurate. Well, Vipergts2's comments somewhat supports my opinion. Furthermore, with one point sometimes meaning a very considerable price difference, somone's feet should be held to the fire for accuracy. I think most everyone on this board agrees with the old, constantly quoted addage, "Buy the coin; not the slab." So, if that's the case, why bother to pay for TPG grading and slabbing?</p><p>Enough from me. (I never should have gotten started on this topic)</p><p><br /></p><p>Steve[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
