After all the hassle of sending coins to US TPG's, insurance, expensive shipping and then very expensive grading fees, you'd think there would be a little bit better grading quality control. Makes me wonder if sometimes the summer students do the grading. Maybe they should use a Canadian version of Photograde as I think they need it. Sorry for the rant, but I find it totally unacceptable. Both graded VF20.   Edited by doubleeagle59

Can you post the reverse of the 1898 please?
"Dipping" is not considered cleaning...

I think 1871 is graded okay. Second unless reverse looks splendid maybe F15 at best?

 The 1871 is right on for a VF-20. The 1898 should have graded VG-10, maybe F-12 Could have been a worse result! |

I would grade the '98 VG-10 tops, and it will only bring that sort of money, so basically they stole your grading fees.  |

First is just barely a VF20.
Second is VG10, F12 on a loose day.

Its NGC grading coins at their finest standards!
They do this probably to please the owner of the coins. They grade worst than me!

Oh my.
The 1871 looks spot on for grade. I can't tell from the photo, but is that the repunched "C" or a die chip inside the curve of the "C"? Nice coin, and tough in grades above F.
The 1898? Wow. That's just painful. I agree with the upthread VG-10-ish grades for this one.
