Statistics, epsecially statistics such as those contained in the pop reports, can be interpretted to mean almost anything. For example, the numbers of coins assigned the grades of 69 & 70 by NGC could be said to mean that those people submitting the coins to NGC are better graders than those people who are submitting the coins to PCGS. But do the numbers prove it ? No of course not. Neither do they prove that NGC has looser grading standards than PCGS. And that's the whole point - it doesn't prove anything.

This discussion could go on ad infinitum - we've had it what, 50 times on this forum alone ? And nothing will ever be resolved. It's like two 8 year olds saying - my dog's better than your dog. Who cares ?

Submit your coins to whatever company you choose, buy your coins in the slab of your choice. And - believe what you want to believe.
