<p>[QUOTE=&quot;crystalk64, post: 28290, member: 1873&quot;]Because the grading industry HYPE is to complete a set out of only the best which is MS70 or PRF70 according to what you may be submitting. A grade of MS69 or PRF69 is so close and there are those collectors out there who would accept that grade and of course, they are a little lighter on the wallet. The grading industry is playing on the fact most folks WANT the best so its money in there pockets. I have compared all kinds of high grade coins, in slabs, to a great number of coins still in proof sets and I am telling you I just can&#039;t see why anyone would pay someone to tell them they have a nice coin which, for the most part, they already knew or they wouldn&#039;t be submitting it in the first place? I may be a die hard, old schooled coin collector but I will stick to my guns and not be fooled into a false market, especially for modern clad coinage. If I wanted to gamble I would go the a casino or play the stock market and we all know what seems to happen there the majority of the time?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
