[QUOTE="19Lyds, post: 1928470, member: 15929"]Provided PCGS and NGC are still around in 25-50 years, I seriously doubt that First Strike™ and Early Release will hold any premiums at all. They are, after all, simply a marketing fad that is bolstered by past prices and registry sets. Take away the registry sets, explain the incredulity of an MS/PF70 coin for its real value (i.e. not perfect but as struck) with a solid understanding that the only accurate label is the Early Release and you're left with a nice looking bullion piece. Absolutely NOBODY can guarantee that PCGS or NGC will be around since all it takes is one or two public screw ups to get the ball rolling which would seriously eat away at credibility. Just look at how quickly Accugrade fell apart with the right folks posting substantiated claims.[/QUOTE]
