Hello there Andy,
I have never been a fan of the term "market grading." I always thought that meant "grading like a loose grading seller of raw coins." And I thought "technical grading" meant grading the coins as they really are. I just don't think the so-called market grading is anything other than overgrading.
PS...Thanks for all the help with pattern research.
David
