Message:: [QUOTE="imrich, post: 3130026, member: 22331"]I'm glad that you had the opportunity to appreciate ACG products, as I. I still have many of their graded more expensive coins for which I had a great appreciation. Many of my ACG graded Gold Double Eagles were removed from their slabs and submitted to a jury of THE 2 prominent TPG. The jury has found by its "raw" grading that the study cited by Coin World in 2003 is generally still relatively accurate. The jury has indicated that the ACG coins don't deserve the grade spread indicated by critics in the past, and never garnered a "cleaned"/problem adjudged slab from either. An expected exception was when I had a mint-state ACG coin still in slab recently submitted at a show for "cross-over". I still have that "key" coin in its slab with a "cleaned" declaration by the TPG. The aforementioned "cleaned" coin is so seldomly seen that I'll need to wait an appreciable amount of time before removing the coin from the ACG slab for witnessed/certified submission to the 2 TPG. I'm certain that the coin will be returned with a grade from both TPG.
