Just curious if any of us know the criteria these coin grading companies use when grading coins. I know in the past ICG seemed to have more liberal grading standards and maybe an MS68 at PCGS could be a MS69 at ICG.
This looks like such a beautiful coin, just wondering what about the coin makes it not an MS69?
I have been told that they take the hologram condition into consideration when evaluating the coin so this may factor in with the given grade of MS68PL
I would say PCGS is more liberal considering they give grades to plastic chips.. lol
I would take an ICG MS68 over a PCGS MS69 any day....
