Is There a Grade Higher Than MS70 - YES!!

I did not realize there was a grade higher than MS70 until yesterday at the ANA.

I showed Pistareen a token which he immediately graded EFu.

You could give me a choice between PCGS MS70 and Pistareen EFu, and, no disrespect to the PCGS guys who do a fine job, I will take the Pistareen grade every time image

    Please educate the NEWBIES such as myself. Any more background to share? EFu stands for? Was just made up on the fly? Has his own super duper duper holder? Photos would help too. Oh, who is Pistareen? Thanks in advance.

    Pistareen is definitely one of the good guys...but if it aint obscure, esoteric, early Americana, I'd probably have to give the edge to the PCGS guys.

    Pistareen is John Kraljevich.

    John K. is a great source of information and possibly an even greater person.
