numismatic student Bedrock of the Community United States 11898 Posts	Posted 01/04/2018 8:36 pm seems like a stretch to call this a gem with multiple cheek hits IN NECESSARIIS UNITAS - IN DUBIIS LIBERTAS - IN OMNIBUS CARITAS THE MAN IN THE ARENA, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne Paris on April 23, 1910: "It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

0xDA71D Pillar of the Community United States 1215 Posts	Posted 01/04/2018 8:47 pm I agree with the community's assessment. Increasingly so, I have been getting a lot of 65's that aren't really 65s The TPGs nowadays are going crazy Report this Post to the Staff
Earle42 Bedrock of the Community United States 10044 Posts	Posted 01/05/2018 1:29 pm Yup. Grading is not a science, but an "art" - and yet no doubt this Morgan would go on ebay for MS65 prices. The new iphone instantaneously projects 30,000 IR data points onto the face of anyone who picks it up to identify whether or not that person is the owner. If it is the owner, the phone allows access. Certainly someone should finally be able to bring a verifiable, scientific standard to coin grading in an app. And those thirty thousand data points will even ID the person handling the phone if they are wearing glasses, a hat, a new beard, and cannot be fooled by a photo b/c it detencts two dimensions from three dimensions. So it would probably not bee too hard to adapt this to surface wear, details, and dings? Seeing as how TPGs don't use high magnification, it seems 20K points might be overkill. The 30,000 instantaneous data points could be related to grading measurable technicalities on the coin surface and then allowing a human to add a point or take away one for eye appeal. Personally I believe this is long overdue. How much squash could a Sasquatch squash if a Sasquatch would squash squash?
