PCGS or NGC....Pros and CONS

I have several 06-W and 07-W ASE and a handful of commerative coins. With PCGS I don't have any chance of getting 70's should I go with NGC....where there is a possibility of 70's. I had all my SAE anniversary sets graded by PCGS. What would YOU do?.....THANKS

    Sell all those bullion rounds and buy coins!image





    Actually, from what I have read the PCGS 69's garner fairly close to the NGC 70 prices on bullion rounds so if the rest of your collection is in PCGS plastic I would put these in the same.
    Just because I'm old doesn't mean I don't love to look at a pretty bust.
  • PCGS does give 70's on silver uncirculated mint issues. It just on ASE's they don't give 70's on.

    Decide if you think you have a NGC 70. If so, go with them.

    If NGC gives you a 69, your better off with PCGS.

  • For what purpose do you want them to reside in a 70 slab? Can you tell the difference between a 69 and a 70? If not, then whats the point? I'm sure they're nice looking coins to have in your collection regardless of the number on the slab.

    because of the super duper price spread, me thinks

    Send them into PCGS for the First Strike™ label.

    It's all about the plastic right?
    Many happy BST transactions

    Check Ebay. NGC MS70 Early Release label sells for more than PCGS MS69 First Strike, for 2007 Silver "W".

    I just did the research on this. I just sent to NGC yesterday. Hopefully all 70's.

    PCGS is better for most everything else, but this one.
