You're not the only one

 

You're not the only one "blindsided". I logged in to find that my Walker set had dropped almost 5,000 points. The only mitigating factor is that the sets above and below had also dropped a similar amount so my "Top 10" rankings are still there.

 

Speaking of glaring points discrepancies, look at the difference between Jefferson nickels and Roosevelt dimes. Take the 1947 issues as an example:

- 1947-S Jefferson in MS-67: there are only 11 at this grade, none higher, none with any FS designation at this grade or higher. Points for the MS-67: 143.

- 1947-S Roosevelt in MS-67: there are 833 at this grade, 58 with FT designation, 10 MS-68's and one MS-68FT. Points for the MS-67: 502

 

So, there are 75 MS-67 Roosevelts for each MS-67 Jefferson, 69 Roosevelts with hogher grades than MS-67 to ZERO Jeffersons with higher grades, but the Roosevelt in MS-67 carries 3.5 times the point value of the Jefferson?
