Ron,

I don't mean to offend you, I know you have good intentions, but when you say your unofficial numerical grading system is to help the people viewing the auction the question that immediately comes to mind is how?

since you are using your own unofficial system which isn't published anywhere, how does it help me to know that under this system it rates 95.

>>that rating was given because one can not see in the scan that the cross hatching lines come all the way to the rim and the chip has a very square edge with no wear.

That rating doesn't tell us that, however in this post you were able to describe it exactly so that we do about the cross-hatching.

I would suggest that you use the descriptive terms as opposed to numerical terms because even in a private email saying "95" doesn't mean anything top us, unless you also publish a guide telling us what 95 means.

If you really want to use a 100 point system at least in using C/W's system we all know where to find the translation.
