In another arena, choice is the grade below prime in meat grading. It has to do with leanness, fat content, and quality of marbling.

You actually need to know this when choosing beef. Remember PiCkS, Prime, Choice, Select. It is subjective, I have found excellently marbled beef marked choice.

Arrrr, Arrrr, red meat, Arrrrrr!

...and just like you can find MS-70 coins from basement slabbers on ebay, the fast food restaurant at the corner of the street can sell me a hamburger made with juicy Kobe beef for $3.99

Regarding the NGC "Gem Uncirculeted" I found this quote in a CCF post from 2008

"this is just as was said used for bulk submissions and a coin labeled Brilliant Uncirculated can be anything from MS-60-MS-64 and MS-65-MS70 would be Gem Uncirculated (this is the answer I got over at NGC's forum about a Morgan dollar graded BU). The submitter gets a break on the submission fee's and can get all their 70's slabbed and the ones that don't meet the 70 they get the Gem Uncirculated or Brilliant Uncirculated grade"

And now, I founded the GEM BU with PCGS !

Look at the 2 pictures below. Both are PCGS and FIRSTRIKE. One is GEM BU and the second one is MS 70. Which one has the highest grading?
Why are PCGS and NGC maintaining such a confusion in their grading?
Has somebody the exact scale of grading of one of the TPG including the non-MS grades?

Another point is that ebay forbids numerical grading of raw coins. This, sellers have to use adjectival grading. However, now think about why ebay stopped allowing numerical grades in the first place...
