Guess-The-Crossover from ANACS to PCGS for the coins below.
Without leaving the page, can you guess what the ANACS grade was on these two bust quarters, and how PCGS crossed them?
To help, or else throw you off, one piece passed on the first attempt while the other made it through on it's second attempt.

Wow!! Sweet coins!
I'm going to say they went up in grade. Anacs 25 Pcgs 30 on the 07
Anacs 50 to Pcgs 55 on the 1820
EAC 6024
I'd guess 20 and 55...and I love both of them!
1 VF30 to VF25
2 AU53 to AU53
25-30
45-50
More stunners 2B!
How well do the images capture the coins? I think the 1820 crossed 50 to 50. The 1807 30 to 25
Experience the World through Numismatics...it's more than you can imagine.
1 ANACS EF 45 crossed to EF 45
2 Anacs AU 50 crossed to EF 40
35 to 30
50 to 45
Did you crack them out and submitted to PCGS in raw or they were inside ANACS holders when submitted?
Also, are these used to be in small white ANACS holders or in new ANACS holders?
With more info, it is easy to guess
Coinkat - the images do capture the coins pretty accurately.
Jcping - they were both in small white ANACS holders, and crossed in the holders. I did not crack them out and send them in raw. I really like the old white holders and would have kept them that way if they didn't cross at grades I liked.

Crossover can only mean they were in the other services holder.
I'll go 1807 VF to VF
1820, AU to AU and took 2 times on this coin.
Coin 1: 30 to 30
Coin 2: 53 to 53
Very nice!
A20/P30
A53/P55
I'll guess 25 to 30, and 53 to 55 on the second one. beautiful coins!
Smells like a lot of cheating on here now that I looked at coinfacts!
I saw them on Coinfacts after posting so no cheating here!
We know the rest of the story but not the beginning.
I didn't think anyone was cheating/researching, and there were a number of higher and lower guesses. It's definitely interesting to see the swings in grades.
The 1807 was in an ANACS VF20 old white holder, and crossed at grade to PCGS.
The 1820 B-1 (a scarcer variety) was in an ANACS AU58 old white holder and was an ebay purchase for me at one time. It crossed at AU55 and has nice luster, I thought it might go at 58 from PCGS.
Msch1man guessed the exact PCGS grades, but did not guess the ANACS grades.
Moldnut had the 1820 as ANACS AU50, with PCGS upgrading to AU55, while Kaz had AU53 to AU55, interesting.
Manniegray also had 53 to 55 for the 1820, but for the 1807 VF20 to VF30. A number of people thought the 1807 should be graded a little higher, so maybe it should really be a VF25/30 coin. It has overall attractive color to it.
Thank you for the guesses and compliments.

Are they now destined for the baron of beans?
