There is no license to acquire to be a coin grader . You may chuckle , but it serves a purpose to the seller . For the buyers who purchase an overgraded coin , the seller now has a buffer(excuse) that says "It's not my fault man , I told you I am not a qualified grader" Sort of similar to to the phrase "from an estate" The buyer is mislead , because he may think that a 1915 S buffalo in fine is worth more than a 1915 S buffalo from a dealers case that was picked up at the March Baltimore show . Selling coins (or used cars,or computers or whatever else has much hype . ) If it works for the seller, can you really blame them , or should the buyer be more familiar with the product ?
