[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 8272191, member: 112"]Fish on ! LOL ! :D Sorry, teasing you at your expense. I'm pretty sure he wasn't really answering his own question - what's the most commonly over-graded - he was making a statement, specifically designed to to elicit a response, kinda like yours. That said, he's right, 3 cent silver and $3 gold are commonly over-graded. But since there are so few of them to begin with, and even fewer that have been graded, would that answer really qualify for being an answer to the original question ? Well, it could be argued that it does because the statement is indeed accurate. But it could also be argued that it doesn't qualify because of the numbers of graded coins being considered. $3 gold numbers in the fairly low tens of thousands total graded, 3 cent silver almost certainly less than 20,000 total graded. But Morgans and Lincoln cents - they each number in the millions total graded. And many, many other coins also grossly outnumber the total graded coins. My point of course that's it not really a fair comparison for that reason. But like I said, it could be argued that it is. Bottom line, I'm pretty sure Mike did exactly what he was trying to do. But that's Mike :D[/QUOTE]
