<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Conder101, post: 4560213, member: 66&quot;]Of the major services SEGS comes in at probably number 5. Their grading isn&#039;t trusted as well as the top 4, but they are probably just as good at authenticity as the top 4, and they are bettter at variety attribution than any of the top 5 with the possible exception of ANACS with VAM&#039;s.&nbsp; (Never trust a variety attribution from the top 4 without verifying it.&nbsp; They&#039;re error rate is much too high.&nbsp; But I don&#039;t think I&#039;ve seen an incorrect attribution in a SEGS holder.)</p><p><br /></p><p>As mentioned the SEGS slab is the toughest slab to crack open.&nbsp; They use a softer plastic than other companies (And I will head this off right now soft plastic does NOT equal PVC.&nbsp; Too many people may the automatic assumption that soft plastic equals PVC.)&nbsp; The other companies use a hard brittle acrylic plastic.&nbsp; Drop them they can crack, chip, even sometimes break apart.&nbsp; The softer SEGS plastic absorbs impacts without breaking or cracking which makes it very difficult to crack a coin out.&nbsp; On the downside the soft plastic is more suseptible to scratches.</p><p><br /></p><p>And then the final advantage of SEGS is they are least expense of the top grading services.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
