I see some one has addressed the "3-graders" statement, I really believe there is not much room for a level playing field, meaning, I highly doubt 3 graders looked at all the coins that went through that PC** company.
I believe they have made a very nice, comfortable living for them selves in their slabbing business, even if your name were Eliasberg, or DR Norweb, or Jack Lee, it is not always who you know in life that gets things done, most times it is who you know.
Point to think about, if you, or I sent in a
Morgan silver dollar to be slabbed and any one of the above sent one in also, who do you think would receive a higher grade, similar coin, different person, Think about it, it ALL comes down to Money.
Any slabbing company would love to get the chance to slab one of the previously mentioned people's coin, and probably do so for free to have their name associated with that "person", just for the bragging rights and the prestige that comes with it, now do you really feel if you or I did the same, they would give any "extra", or same treatment to us? LOL. Just my opinion, plus my experience in researching the
TPG'S!!!
