SilverDollarMan Posted July 4, 2005 Report Share Posted July 4, 2005 Damn, it blew me away, those "graders" handeling those coins w/o gloves. Dave say's PCGS is the #1 TPG, I don't think that will be true long! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joanjet Posted July 4, 2005 Report Share Posted July 4, 2005 Thanks, really enjoyed that. I also was surprised that they handled coins without gloves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Sisu Posted July 8, 2005 Report Share Posted July 8, 2005 Interesting! Thanks for the link Stujoe. What it did not answer for me was how they determine the grades for world coins. There is no way they have people there that can know all the details of world coinage to know what the standard is to grade against, what strikes are naturally low relief, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emperor Oli Posted July 8, 2005 Report Share Posted July 8, 2005 There's something weird going on with Mr. Hall's ears; at some points, it looks like he has none. Anyway, great video, I never realised they were so thorough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was told none of the TPG graders wear gloves because it causes clumziness when handling the coins???!!? Jerry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twentycent Posted July 10, 2005 Report Share Posted July 10, 2005 That was interesting. I always wondered what it looked like inside a TPG. Jerry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CiScO Posted July 10, 2005 Report Share Posted July 10, 2005 I am thoroughly shocked that these guys are not using gloves--Here I am using gloves to insert coins into their sleeves--Now I know where those finger prints came from--What? I am to use gloves to keeps oils off the coins but these guys can piss on my coin with there oily hands?? If true that all TPG's do not use gloves really now is starting to concern me-- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
