PCGS Graded My Coin Wrong Tell Me What You Think

As stated, you lucked out with a 67.

I just can't win.

I still think that the professionals who work at TPG know their job and evaluate the coins correctly. I hate coin sellers who write "undervalued" MS 65, MS64, etc. The person held this coin in his hands, he saw all its pros and cons live, and the offended seller shouts that he sees 1-2 points more there. It annoys me.

I don't want to offend anyone, but I just think that a professional is a professional because he knows his business.

Thad is right! It's easier to scrutinize a coin when you take the time to study it for awhile. If I am given correct information the TPGS do these coins in under a minute.. it's almost two years I have been religiously been studying how to grade. IMHO pictures never seem to look like the coin in hand (color included) I am referring to TRUEVIEW pictures from PCGS. I have two sources to determine the approximate grade of a coin. First the CCF and second the pictures of actual coins already graded by PCGS. When comparing the coin I have in hand to a picture of a 67 or 68, it seems I can spot a flaw on most pictured coins. The one thing that sticks out is the fact that over 50% of high grade coins (Lincolns) have some type of toning that appeals to graders. more so than how well a coin survived the minting process. If PCGS is continually looking to hire new graders and the process being subjective then what's a 67 or 68 to one grader may not be the same as another grader. I for one value a coin on it's survival from the mint all the way to us not so much on the environment it was stored in.. There are limits to my statements though. In the end it's a crap shoot.
