<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Owle, post: 1431406, member: 22004&quot;]ANACS has done a yeoman&#039;s job of grading all types of coins; they were grading details coins way before the others started getting into that (cash incentive?).&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>A fellow at a recent show sent in 30-40 coins to ANACS, almost all of them came back in &quot;details&quot; holders.&nbsp; So they do a good job considering they are generally not getting the quality coins that NGC and PCGS are getting in their submissions.&nbsp; I would have an inferiority complex if I were a grader there because of the attitude that they are second tier and can never rise above that no matter how hard they try.&nbsp; But they do know their stuff, they know their varieties, they call a spade a spade when they see problem coins or fakes they are open and honest about it.</p><p><br /></p><p>If I were grading low-end coins and then finally some nice coins with real value came through I would get excited and be tempted to over-grade by comparison.&nbsp; So I don&#039;t really blame them for some optimistically graded coins.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
