[QUOTE="tmoneyeagles, post: 612863, member: 17557"]I'm all for having coins graded! I prefer all my coins to be graded, and it is a great way for collectors that are beginning to learn how to grade coins. I own coins that are not graded, and at one point, have thought about selling each and every one, with a few exceptions, but I decided to hold on to them. Most raw coins I own, are low graded so there is no point in getting them graded Now to answer your question about the best... NGC, and PCGS are the ones I'd buy. ANACS and ICG are good, just not for me, but if I can get a good deal on an undergraded coin in an ICG or ANACS slab, I'd totally do it, but have yet to seen one undergraded, that is worth buying PCGS will always have the best resale, followed by NGC I'd, at the moment stay away from all the random "XYZ" grading companies... If you can not accurately grade coins yourself, I'd suggest getting a redbook, or a book that is on the coins that you collect Also, any questions on buying a graded coin, just show it here If you are buying on ebay, make sure it has a return policy, and good pictures ;)[/QUOTE]
