Message:: [QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 923738, member: 112"]No Paul, it means that coins like the two you pictured are common as dirt. You see, I don't care what the TPG said, those coins are over-graded. How do I know this without knowing the assigned grade ? You posted them and you don't post coins that were assigned low grades.  It's always fun for me Paul.    I rather thought I answered that to some degree at least. As I said, the first coin looks to have rub (light wear) on it to me. That means I would grade it no higher than AU58. But I know you didn't post a picture of a coin in an AU58 slab. As for the other one, as I siad it looked to me like the guy with the axe got after Jefferson again. No Paul, I'm not saying this coin is damaged, but it could grade no better than 63, nor should it. That's why I said why bother. I know you're going to tell us that the slabs say 65, 66 or 67 and then you're going to try and convince me of why those grades are accurate. But I say horse puckey Paul, the best of those 2 coins should never see anything over 63 and that opinion will never change. So what does somebody learn from my comments ? Anybody who has been around here more than a week knows that's what my opinion will be and why I have that opinion. My only hope is that a few of them see the light and understand my reasoning. Maybe, eventually, enough will that the TPGs even listen. I know you never will. At least not until the TPGs do.[/QUOTE]
