Roger M, You and I also have an advantage over Mike with respect to getting the feel for how common the common coins are. Mike sees normally the nicer coins that are worthy of being consigned or sold over the counter. We, on the otherhand, see many many common coins in low grade in our travels. I'm making some assumptions in this statement. Ray W

Mike, I agree to some extent. However, you have a personal data base that is very valuable with the rating of each coin by a single observer. I think the previous discussions of having photographs of the "top ten" coins in any variety would be very heplful for those that have not viewed all the coins personally. As has been emphasized in the past, even by Ray who was doing the CC for NJs, the condition is in the eye of the beholder. Therefore MY net grade for a coin and my ordering of the coins in a CC may be very different from yours. Though there is nothing as important as personal inspection of each coin, a photographic file for each variety would be a very helpful adjunct to the present "flip a coin" rating system. Also, the R-6 and R-7s of today are the R-4 and R-5s of tomorrow. Just my thoughts. Roger
