.During the Long Beach PCGS grading course we were given a 50-coin grading test. This consisted of grading from images projected on a screen, in about the time a typical professional grader does it- 30s to 1min per coin. Despite being tested on coins from series I really haven't looked at before, I did decently, meaning one score tier down from where the typical PCGS grader ended up. With enough practice in material I'm not used to I suspect I'd be pretty competent.
