You can always tell the lower-tier slabs because their descriptions say "certified" without mentioning it by name. You'd never see a PCGS or NGC coin listed as merely "certified."

As I recall from a recent thread here, an NTC MS-69 Washington quarter reslabbed at PCGS at MS-64. And the funny thing is, it probably *still* gained market value.

I hope their reserve is nowhere near the $1800 they've highlighted...

Not cleaned in the harsh, whizzing easy to spot way. But the coin is certainly overdipped. It's original skin is gone! No better than an ms63 or 64 depending on how much luster is left. JMHO.

I thought HRH was going to do something about sellers of bottom feeding slabs using the PCGS price guide.

Get this line in the auction description:

An 1881-S sold for $2,405.00 right here on Ebay last week. As stated, this coin is certified by Numistrust, the standard in rare coin grading.

This borders on fraud in my opinion.

I like the comment by the seller, "As stated, this coin is certified by Numistrust, the standard in rare coin grading". Bawhahahahaha

I also dislike the fact that the seller uses an image from the PCGS pricing guide. That ought to be pursued and stopped by PCGS. Unfortunately the auction ends tonight....

I find NTC's grading standards to be somewhat less than acceptable.

If New Mistrust Corporation is the standard in rare coin grading, then PCGS must be The Great One, and the seller must traffic in some very powerful narcotics.
