<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Vegas Vic, post: 2014910, member: 58810&quot;]The tpg grading scales have become the standard that are used whether you like it or not. Coins in both ngc and pcgs holders usually have completed sales in a somewhat narrow range when the coin is not somehow outstanding in some fashion like 90% of coins.</p><p><br /></p><p>When was the last time anyone went to a show or major auction and didn&#039;t see the vast majority of a dealers case filled with mainly pcgs and ngc coins? Sure there are some here and there selling mint products and raw coins but not many. If these graders are not the industry standard then why are so many of the higher end coins for sale in pcgs and ngc holders? I honestly don&#039;t remember the last time I saw a major auction with even one seriously expensive raw coin. </p><p><br /></p><p>Some people want to fight change kicking and screaming. This is surprisingly what I encounter in my workplace. You can argue ana vs anything you want but when I look at major auctions and coin shows all I see is that the pcgs and ngc grading is the very definition of the market. This is in my opinion the reality whether you personally agree or disagree.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
