    Yes, I know of them. They were active from 1986 through 1992 and they have used three holder varieties, the last of which offered a double your money back guarantee on authenticity, but which also dropped the company name and contained no contact information. As for their grading ability you will have to ask someone else, I don't discuss my general opinions of services grading. (I will give my opinion on specific coins though.)

    I have had a few in the past and they were graded about right- not to say that they were all graded accurately though. I remember one of them had the graders initials D.H. and I kind of wondered if David Hall was the grader? mike image
