I think ANACS would be the best.... any opinions?

Thanks,

I added ICG and SEGS.... NTC made my list because I happened to have got an NTC coin in a trade that I just opened up and the name was fresh in my mind.

Do any of them give out free 2X2s?

Depends on the coin and the reason for submitting.
If its problem free and your planning to sell, then I would say PCGS.

Actually ANACS has been busting balls on copper as of late, any slightest nick, mark etc, they are net grading the coins. In fact sometimes they are so hard that the same coin net graded at ANACS will Slab at PCGS. On top of that, more people would pay stronger for the PCGS holder anyway, fogetting what the coin actually looked like?

well what die pair is it?

is it problem free?

Not problem free... obverse grades G/VG (scratches on front)

reverse is EF.

If the scratches have any siginificance to them at all, then it wont holder at PCGS. So then that leaves ANACS, but they will net grade the coin for the scratches, but it will at least give the future buyer the assurance of Authenticity.

From you comments, It sounds like you have Strng rev #2 which is really the only true No D. The obverse on the coin is very difficult to grade becuase the detail is not present, the coins are graded mostly from the reverse, and as you get to Xf-45 and into AU, it becomes a combo of surface preservation and luster presence as well as the reverse detail.

Intresting coin I saw yesterday at a local show. A PCGS Vf-30 graded 22 No D that had super strong crisp wheat lines with evidence of luster in the protected areas. It was characterisitic of an XF-45 coin min, but the obverse was extremely weak and possibly lightly wiped. PCGS must have market graded it down to Vf-30.

Thats what i figured.... PCGS will bag it (at least I think) at least with ANACS they will assure the authentisity.

No matter what service you select, you'll need a flip to submit it.

I predict that even if Greg goes on to become a superior legend with stacks of money no one will forget his flip attitude.

I said NGC. If it has problems they can put it in an NCS slab with a detail grade along with a notation of any problems. So instead of an ANACS NET grade, of say FR02, because of the scratches, they would say something like, VG(whatever number) scratched on the holder and let the person buying the coin decide what kind of money they want to pay. It's a good system because when someone sees an NET grade on an ANACS slab, that's what they think in terms of money when there are a lot of good looking damaged coins out there that should get more than that.

I would go with Anacs regardless but if its problem free go with PCGS you'll get more money out of it.

Any of the big (3) PCGS,NGC.ANACS would be OK.Since your previous thread said you were trying to become a dealer,I'd PCGS would give you a bettere return on your investment.

NTC has seven votes. I get the impression that some are not taking this poll seriously.

It would bring the most money in a PCGS holder, but if the scratches are bad, go with ANACS and their net grading service.

Well I think we got all the aspects covered....

Bash Greg for the flip post and bash Kerry....

We have got a double threat poster.... can attack 2 people at once.

Way to go!

P.S. In all actuality I am going to post a final message to the flip thing with some final closing comments. I loved having this discussion with everyone though, it makes me feel like Im Back.... dealing with all of the bullsh*t dealers deal with, I feel welcomed home.... thanks.
