<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 627, member: 112&quot;]While I will agree about a couple of points made by GradingPolicingAuthority regarding what appears to be a conflict of interest - I do not agree that NGC &amp;amp; PCGS fail to make it public that they receive paid endorsements from the PNG &amp;amp; the ANA. This fact is well known and is publicized every time the contract comes up for renewal. They even announce the amounts paid. </p><p><br /></p><p>I have long campaigned to do away with this practice as I feel it is not in the best interest of the numismatic community. I feel that organizations like the PNG &amp;amp; ANA, as well as others, should endorse all of the grading companies equally. Provided the grading companies can verify that they are indeed worthy of such endorsement. Until such time - there is little else that collectors can rely on other than their own opinions and the opinions of other collectors.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
