    I am considering a significant SEGS submission, actually. "Grade" for the coins are of practically no interest to me - these are simply very difficult coins to attribute.

    So why not ANACS? Common choice for that situation.

    If you are looking for cheap but still readily recognized, anacs seems like a much better option. Segs greatly over grades almost everything and I've found many cleaned and damaged coins in those holders. They only detail the most extreme damage, but 90% of what others would call damaged they straight grade.

    SEGS attributes a far wider range of obscure coins than does ANACS - or at least they used to. And again, I really do not care about "grade" with regard to the items I want to have attributed and encapsulated. In fact, one question I will pose is whether they can merely state "genuine" and not grade my items at all.

    How do you plan on finding out about SEGS?
