First of all this is not scientific in any way. Numbers were obtained using a keyword search and does not take into account keyword spammers. But I still find it very interesting. If you thought third-world slabs were getting out of hand this surely affirms that fact. NNC, SGS and NTC slabs now outnumber ANACS slabs selling on eBay! The following figures may amaze/amuse you:
US Coins on eBay: 101,937
Grading Service/ number of coins on eBay / %
1. PCGS-8294/8.1%
2. NGC- 6022/5.9%
3. NNC-1239/1.2%
4. SGS-1190/1.2%
5. NTC-1153/1.1%
6. ANACS-1053/1%
7. PCI- 664/.65%
8. ICG- 530/ .52%
9. SEGS- 185/ .18%
10. ACG- 46/ .04%
11. PNGS- 32/ .03%
The SGS number is totally amazing imho!! Chris

I think they're stating factual data. You can make of it what you will.
Apropos of the coin posse/aka caca: "The longer he spoke of his honor, the tighter I held to my purse."
Only two people in the world long for the days or yore when ACG was King of Krap: Alan Hagar & wench

Very interesting. So, only 19.92% of the coins on eBay are in slabs? That means over 80% are raw and ready to be slabbed by the lucky soul who buys them up. Are there really that many raw coins?
I'd be interested in the percentages for all SLABBED coins, not ALL coins in general. I guess I could figure it out myself from the data you have given us.
Thanks!

2004 Professional Numistmatists guild survey of grading companies listed only PCGS, NGC, ANACS and ICG as "average" or above for accuracy of grade. ACG, SEGS, NTC and PCI were rated as poor or unacceptable.
Some here were sued for openly criticising a grading company- the suit was unsucessful, but that has made some parse their words carefully.

I'll stick my neck out here....I do not "parse" my words based on previous suits. SGS should be ashamed of there outrageously overgraded "so-called" slabs. I just hope that those who buy them expect about a 5-12 point overgrade. I believe there final selling price is evidence that they are fooling noone. Chris
