    Amazing, all being full strikes and such.

    Sounds like someone's BS grading company.

    This guy has been around, the "PGS" grading service... it's just a homemade slab service that's using CoinWorld slabs...

    Just another person trying to sell plastic... such a pity.

    I think I'm going to open up my own slabbing company... call it SGCP (Some Good Coins Potentially) maybe... grade them very conservatively (which is completely opposite of this seller, from what I've seen)... I'll take all the PCGS MS65 coins... and make them 64 coins... NGC 65 coins would be 63's... ANACS would be MS61's... and SCS and PGS would be, no matter the 70 grade, AU58's probably.

    The grading tier would be as follows: All previously graded slabbed coins: $3 per coin, with a minimum of 2 coins submitted...

    Figure this way... my slabs would be the best... what do you think?


    Wait... it's already been done in some form or another... they call it PCGS...

    That's a great price for 4 different PR70's- what are the odds of finding four matched coins in that condition?? image
    My style is impetuous, my defense is impregnable !

    I'm not even sure they're all proofs, let alone PR-70...
  • I'll bet these were the same thoughts and statements when PCGS started up!image


    And, actually, read the forum on a daily basis and you'll still hear the same complaints about the Big three!image
