Lets say you have 3 coins same make and model that you KNOW should grade at MS70. The highest grade for that coin is MS69 that sold for 18,000 USD last year. My 3 questions: Would you get all 3 graded at the same time? Do you believe given the popularity and value of the MS69 that the TPG will consider giving you a lower grade? ** Do you believe TPGs always grade without prejudice, giving each coin exactly what they believe it deserves no matter the consequence? I guess this could have been a poll. Oh well. Thanks... John Edited by CoinAddiction 08/15/2019 01:23 am Report this Post to the Staff

Basically same chance as winning the lottery Quote: Would you get all 3 graded at the same time? Yes Quote: Do you believe given the popularity and value of the MS69 that the TPG will consider giving you a lower grade? You'll get the grade they deserve from first tier TPGs though if you think you have 3 70s you probably wont like the results. Quote: Do you believe TPGs always grade without prejudice, giving each coin exactly what they believe it deserves no matter the consequence? Yes the first tier TPGs do. Report this Post to the Staff

This came from something I read on another coin site and just thought I would see what others thought. It almost sounded like a TPG coinspiracy :) thanks for your replies Edited by CoinAddiction 08/15/2019 05:08 am Report this Post to the Staff

It's perfectly okay to enjoy raw coins, rather than TPG. But if someone belittles their work it's usually because of their own inability to grade consistently. Yes, you can find mistakes they make. But with the 10's of millions of coins that they've graded, it's pretty rare. Report this Post to the Staff
