There has never been consistency on the part of the TPG's that is why I do not use them but keep my coins raw and graded by me using a standard which I believe is reliable and above all consistent .

whats funny is I have a tendency to grade below what the TPGs generally do .

am I to conservative ? I don't think so when I put a 67 or 68 on a coin I pretty much feel at ease that it earned the grade .

it sounds like the business will make money on the submission .

and I suppose thats cool that is whatthey are in it for , but as a collector I want my numbers to be true representations of my coins ,,when I upgrade its real .
