I am thinking that it might be good idea to post pictures and have members grade coins from the pics. I originally wanted to set it up with a poll for voting, but that is going to take longer than I hoped.

My question is this: If we do this, should we only picture TPG coins and then post the slabbed grade as the answer? The only problem that I have with this is that I haven't always agreed with slabbed grades.

Since grading is very subjective, I think it might be better to post pics of raw coins and see what the consensus grade is. In addition to honing our grading skills, I think it would be great to see the pics of so many different coins.

What is everyone's feeling on this?

I think this is a good way to check grading skills,personally grade the coin and then get a consenus ,,see how close we can come on our own and through time the improvement should be noticable.
Rest in Peace

I don't think it would matter which coins we were grading. I would like to see the grade that everyone assigns and know the grading system their using to grade it. Great Idea Susan..!
