Paulus Posted February 2, 2017 Posted February 2, 2017 (edited) When this coin was graded, CGS 80 was described as UNC - it may well say this on the slab - they changed their descriptions a few years ago so that 78 became UNC, 70 aUNC etc I have just bought an 1861 shilling which is CGS 78 and described on the slab as AU Edited February 2, 2017 by Paulus

CGS dropped the prefix grading letters after march 2013. Hence UIN of 9285 would certainly have UNC 80 stated on the slab unless it has been reholdered.
PWA 1967 Posted February 2, 2017 Posted February 2, 2017 (edited) The confusion was brought about only by the number not its description . Guy had put 78 instead of 80 thats all Edited February 2, 2017 by PWA 1967

Rob Posted February 4, 2017 Posted February 4, 2017 Not sure why. All that is being discussed is a selection of numbers. Whether the poster puts up an inconsistent number or the TPG gives an inconsistent grade - who cares? Of far greater use is the knowledge that the number may or may not be an accurate reflection of a supposedly consistent set of criteria, irrespective of what is written.
