<p>[QUOTE="wxcoin, post: 24904121, member: 74624"]I'm not sure if I totally believe that. If true, it would hurt their reputations by admitting that they inflated grades. Couldn't they argue that CACG is being too conservative with their grades? I realize that JA has earned respect from the numismatic community and is considered a top expert, but what does that say about the other TPGs? Considering the large volumes of coins that the TPGs grade, I can understand that some lower tier coins most likely won't be seen by the elite graders. In that situation I can understand why a coin may not get a proper grade; most likely over-graded. Over time, unless CACG limits the volume of coins it grades, I don't see where they will be any better than the others. I would guess that as the rarity increases, the grades given by the top TPGs will be almost identical.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
