<p>[QUOTE="SteveInTampa, post: 1230127, member: 27107"]Opinions regarding third party grading may become controversial on public forums. Learn as much as possible for yourself concerning grading, originality, and authentication. Many of the members here have wonderful, valuable collections and registry sets with PCGS or PMG. I do not......and most (80%) of my collection is raw and protected in MYLAR-D currency sleeves. I like CGA, PCGS and PMG, but would rather put my money towards new purchases instead of grading charges. I live about 75 miles from PMG, have met the President of PCGS, and am personal friends with the owner of CGA (John Spinelli). All three grading companies are good. CGA will get your notes back to you faster then PMG or PCGS, you don't have to be a member to submit to CGA, the label on the CGA holder is printed by the American Bank Note Company, and they have a rock solid guarantee. Some auction companies require PMG or PCGS grading, but not the largest (eBay). I hope this helps, and I'm sure you will get plenty of opinions.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
