Modern German coin grading

Blackhawk

Suppose that one has some modern German marks that they want to get graded and sell. Which TPG service would demand the best price?

The question is if this TPG will also bring a decent result. Check the modern rates of NGC and PCGS, you might get something there.If it applies to world coins of course, and I think they mean post 1964.

I fear the day buyers of modern German coins join the slab frenzy!


Seriously though, I'm not sure. I don't often go out of my way to track the modern stuff, but whenever it blips onto my radar the auctions always seem to have an odd hit-or-miss quality. Key dates can fetch nice prices in grade, but then there are times when similar material seemingly falls flat. Again, I'm not an avid follower of the stuff, but the market seems to have some odd tendencies--the market outside of Germany, that is... but shoot, even in Germany I saw things that would make me stratch my head!
