Let's say, you think you've cherrypicked a decent coin...

razorface1027 · February 26, 2004 5:19AM

and you think it grades what the label says it grades; however, it's in a (I won't mention any names) "Yucky" grading company's holder...

1: Do you crack it and submit to PCGS?
2: Submit it in it's "Yucky" grading company's holder and hope they (PCGS) doesn't downgrade because of the name of the "Yucky" grading company?

All thoughts appreciated!...

Crack it and send it to PCGS.

Crack. The whole might throw that little psycological edge that isn't wanted even though they claim it dosen't matter.

Definately crack... it's the only way to "make them grade it" without any bias attached.

Crack it, if if you send a coin in a AGC or NTC holder the graders might look at it after they got up off the floor from laughing!!!

I cracked two such coins out and left them raw.

Crack attack!

Superglue some tape over the grade. Drives them crazy....

Crack it, put the coin a flip, then wash my hands because I touched the crappy holder

At least they'd be in a good mood.

Crack n submit

Crossovers are for sissies & wimps. Real men crackem and submit raw and don't cry when they come back lower or in a bag.

If it's already "yucky" you might as well crack it out and find out the real grade.

And, are always willing to keep giving PCGS chances at the coin until they finally get it right.
