This is one of those new quasi grading services. Avoid it like the plague, trust me, for your hard earned
$, buy PCGS/NGC only. Please!!!!!!!

Oh yeah, I will always just stick to PCGS. But I just wanted to know if this was an at-home grading service scam type thing. Making a list of sellers on an excel spread sheet to avoid like crazy. Kind of like a reference sheet.

This is one of those startup grading services like NTC. I recall seeing one of their ads and several
coins on Ebay.

"Each coin has been graded with a computerized method – The Vanderdecken System. Which takes into account the strike, the luster, the metal flow, as well as the eye appeal"

The biggest joke in this statement is "eye appeal". Ever heard of a computer that was capable of recognizing eye appeal?

Avoid this, as your merely paying $15.50 for a plastic holder with meaningless lettering.

No it's real, they have been around since May of 2001. At first all they graded were state quarters but as time passed they slowly expanded to other series and now they grade all US coins. Their "claim to fame" was their unusual slab thet let you view the entire edge of the coin and the feet on the slab that lets it act ast its own display stand. unfortuantely they make stacking very difficult and coins of different denominations can not be stacked together at all.

PCGS played around with this idea over 10 years ago.

Personally I doubt if DCGS actually does computer grading.
