2007 Platinum Pr/Reverse Pr Set 10th Anniversary Labels NGC vs PCGS

Ok I just joined both collectors clubs at NGC and PCGS today, spent all of this money for joining clubs what should one do?

*Pcgs* will give only the *Reverse Proof*+*10th Anniversary+*1st Strike* on the label. But On the *Proof* Coin it only gets the 10th Annivesary Label in the set because it has already been out earlier this year.

NGC will give both coins the 10th anniversary label but no "Early Release" On the Label. Also as I understand them to be deem a set with matching labels? Not like PCGS will do? Of course original mint box must not be opened.

I don't remember how both of these companies labeled the 2006 20th Anniversary Bullion 3 coin sets, but I remembered the *Burnished Die* *W* mint bullion eagle was released twice that year and given 1st Strikes by PCGS on both releases was this true and the reason?

Your comments and thoughts please.

    PCGS will now give out the designation of First Strike and 10th Anniversary to the regular platinum proof in this set.

    Also I just usually join the ANA for $40 a year and you get submission privileges to NGC as an ANA member though the membership to NGC is very limited and you do not get the full privileges that buying a yearly membership from NGC has.
  • If you really don't care about having a perfect set then go with PCGS, a PCGS 70 set will be worth more money but the percentage will be about 25% 70's compared to NGC which will have about 50% 70's. As a seller I'd choose NGC because you have a 30% chance at getting 70's. But as a collector I like PCGS. Since I am keeping these for the long haul I went with PCGS since I will be happy no matter what grade.
