David, how does pcgs come to a grade on a coin with two sides that are at least 3 grades apart ?

An example of what I mean is a coin who's obverse looks mint state 65 and who's reverse looks 62, how does pcgs grade such a coin ? Do you average out the two sides and call it a 63 or 64 ? or do you say that the coin is only as good as it's poorest side and call it a 62 ?

The President claims he didn't lie about taxes for those earning less then $250,000 a year with public mandated health insurance yet his own justice department has said they will use the right of the government to tax when the states appeals go to court.

    Hi Les,

    It's pretty rare for a coin to have two sides that are three grades apart. When that happens, the coin will usually get the lowest side grade or if the eye appeal is special it might get one grade over the lowest side. it helps if the lowest side is the reverse.

    Thanks,

    David
