<p>[QUOTE="sand, post: 7780720, member: 118540"]The only problem with Sear, in my opinion, is that his web site doesn't seem to have a lookup service, where you could use a number on the certificate, to lookup photos of the coin, on the web site. That is the big advantage of NGC, for their slabs, in my opinion. That's why I wish NGC had COAs, with the same web site photos lookup service, as for their slabs. If I were buying a coin, from someone who had a paper COA from Sear, then I would worry a little bit, that the paper certificate, could be faked. But photos on a web site, are much more difficult to fake. On the other hand, if I sent a coin to Sear myself, then I would be somewhat happy, with a paper COA from Sear, because I had received the paper COA directly from Sear. It's just that the paper COA from Sear, would not be so useful to me, if I ever wanted to sell the coin.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
