    When having currency graded who do most collectors use? PMG, PCGS, or others. Thanks

    I have notes from both of these TPG's. I like the label of the PMG holder, but not the tinted holder. I like the clear holder on the PCGS, but not the label. PCGS has graded many, many notes 70 (perfect), and PMG has graded only ONE note 70. If you plan on competing, then pick one or the other, because neither service recognizes the other in competitive sets. There's another TPG around that I use, but I won't mention it here in respect to your original question.

    Thanks for your advice...For resale purpose do you prefer one versus another? I don't plan on selling these notes now (mostly pre 1928) but I might in the future. Thanks again

    In the Mpc world, PCGS has only graded one perfect 70 (Series 661 5 Cent) and very few 69,s
    But you need to remember both PCGS and PMG grade differently but that doesnt make one
    Any better then the other!
