[QUOTE="Speedy, post: 146193, member: 705"]Howdy BZcollector Yes I always have liked ANACS (NGC is the one that gave me the FBL though) and sent alot of coins to them....but with new changes....such as Mr Taylor/new holders/etc there seems to be some going away from being collector friendly---their customer service I hear is the pits now. I have viewed many new ANACS slabs and alot of them are overgraded---I do own ONE new ANACS slab and it is a Morgan Dollar--I totaly agree with the grade so maybe with Morgans they are still doing alright---but I've seen others like Washington Quarters that are all overgraded at least 1 point (the coin is XF and they grade it AU) I agree that they have gotten some top known graders from PCGS---but that is part of their downfall almost IMHO---PCGS (if you go back and read my thoughts on PCGS) has seem to overgrade on the higher grades---since Mr Taylor has started and these new graders I have heard of more and more ANACS PF and MS70 coins than ever before. I still praise ANACS--and I still buy coins in their slabs but mostly the old slabs--- and I'm glad that they have changed some---the new holder is nice---the new graders are great---and I hope that I'm wrong that their grading standers have changed but most of the ones I look at point that they are grading lose. Thanks for the nice comments---I can only hope that one day I'll deal in coins--right now it looks like that may be a job I'll do years down the road as there are other things I would like to do---I would love to make coins my full time job but don't know if I can or could do that at this time and make a go of it.
