<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 1042622, member: 112&quot;]Easy answer to the question - why is this ?</p><p><br /></p><p>Because very few use the same grading standards.</p><p><br /></p><p>Ask these two dealers of yours what grading standards they use and see what they tell you. Then ask them 1 at a time, why they assigned a certain grade to a given coin that is in their inventory. Then pull a coin of the same type (and hopefully of the same grade as their coin is) out of your pocket and ask them to grade that coin. And if as you say they typically grade them 2 grades lower, then ask him to explain why he graded your coin as he did.</p><p><br /></p><p>Now this is kind of going to put that dealer on the spot because if his coin is say an MS64 Morgan, and your coin is an MS64 Morgan. He&#039;s going to have to have a pretty good reason for calling it an MS62. Especially when you can look at other coins in his inventory and in all likelihood find other coins just like yours that he has graded as MS64.</p><p><br /></p><p>Either way, it should be a telling and enlightening experience for you.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
