How is RQN different from independent grading services?
Independent grading services use technical grading as a major consideration when assigning a grade. But technical grading is not a major factor in a note's visual appearance.
For example, independent grading services count the number of folds when grading circulated notes. For uncirculated notes, they give the margins major consideration. RQN goes beyond technical, quantitative elements and evaluates a note's overall attractiveness, which is usually called "eye appeal." See FAQ #2 for more details.
