<p>[QUOTE=&quot;samclemens3991, post: 26098743, member: 82181&quot;]If you took a census of my past collections you would find a tendency towards PCGS and NGC but I have also had coins in holders from 6 other companys.&nbsp; It is my current project to eliminate all but the PCGS and NGC holdered coins but that has more to do with keeping things simple for my heirs.</p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Your question centers on purchasing though.&nbsp; Know this.&nbsp; I reject at least one third to one half of all coins no matter what holder they are in.&nbsp; I have found numerous coins with large gouges, scratches, rows of scratches from brass brushing (digger coins), harsh cleanings, and my least favorite dipped into oblivion.&nbsp; All in straight graded holders and I haven&#039;t even mentioned grading.</p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; I only expect the slab companys to make sure the coin is real.&nbsp; In all other regards buyer beware!&nbsp;&nbsp; James[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
