[QUOTE="ranchhand, post: 162427, member: 2622"]your speaking my language cloudsweeper ;) I would like to point out an interesting thing that happened to me: When i purchased my saint i asked the dealer what he thought it would grade at, he picked the coin up, looked at it for a split second, said "MS-64" and handed it to me. he had many of them at the time, and it was not labeled as MS-64, just as BU. I purchased the coin (for ms-60 prices i might add) and sent it to PCGS. it came back MS-64. The dealer was right on the nose... Even though the graders move at speed I believe that when you have reached that level of grading you CAN grade that fast, think about it, these people grade ALL DAY! Every day! I have also seen my dealer look at a coin and nail the grade almost instantly. If the coin is above MS-66 they tend to give it a harder look... so... any one ever send coins to SEGS or PCI or ICG??? :)[/QUOTE]
