Okay, this question as to why PCGS commands better prices has been asked many times. The quick answer is in the general perception of the coin buying community. PCGS told people they are better, and people who use PCGS told others they were better, and soon, people believed that they were better.
NGC has gone on the offensive as late with "BUYING" endorsements from the ANA and PNG. Smart collectors are now buying the coin and not the holder, and other large sellers such as the TV channels spouting off the NGC tale. So if you research the prices realized, you will see that NGC is gaining ground very quickly, and I predict that NGC will lead the hobby within two years.

Now as far as the 1925-S Mercury Dime MS-66FB
NGC BID $3500.00
PCGS BID $3750.00
