PCI and gold Coins?

Any opinions on their grading? Do they miss clean coins? Is grading generally accurate?

    I operate on the assumption that all PCI (or SEGS or NTC) graded gold coins are cleaned/problem and/or overgraded. I might miss a rip now and then but far more often than not, my assumption holds true. Apparently, PCI was "good" at one time. Others here can fill in the details.

    Stay away, unless you are proficient at grading and have seen a coin in hand.
    Family, kids, coins, sports (playing not watching), jet skiing, wakeboarding, Big Air....no one ever got hurt in the air....its the sudden stop that hurts. I hate Hurricane Sandy. I hate FEMA and i hate the blasted insurance companies.

    All the grading services slab cleaned gold but some are a little more picky on how much cleaning is okay. mike
