<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Troodon, post: 26025883, member: 4626&quot;]If I&#039;m buying, I don&#039;t care which company&#039;s plastic it&#039;s in, as I&#039;m buying the coin not the slab; if anything precisely because ANACS has less perceived value in the market, I might be able to get a nice coin cheaper if it&#039;s ANACS graded.&nbsp; You can&#039;t really deny the reality that PCGS and NGC are more marketable than ANACS, but I&#039;ve rarely seen the claim that ANACS is any worse at grading, and sometimes they&#039;re actually more strict than the big two.&nbsp; I buy coins because I want them in my collection, not because I have any intention of ever selling them if I can help it, so I don&#039;t really care about what the market thinks about whose slab a coin is in.&nbsp; At any rate I tend to prefer raw coins anyway; I&#039;ve submitted more coins to ANACS than the number of coins I&#039;ve bought already in their slabs; they&#039;re cheaper, faster, and don&#039;t require a membership, and I mainly getting coins graded not for the sake of making them easier to sell, but to make them easier to protect and store.&nbsp; (Two coins I bought in their slabs I&#039;ve broken out of them!)[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
