<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Tater, post: 2624745, member: 9717&quot;]This is something that we have discussed here in the past. PCGS call it what you want is not as consistent as NGC.&nbsp; From the small sample size of graded coins that I have looked at over the years it is obvious that with both companies you can see variances or errors in opinion on grades.&nbsp; If I&#039;m looking for a nice MS 63 graded peace dollar the what I will call grade band for MS 63 is far greater for PCGS.&nbsp; You will find far more coins that should/could be MS 62 or MS 64 sitting in a MS 63 holder with PCGS than that of NGC.&nbsp; This plays into the crack out game as you have all mentioned and inflates the pop reports, why wouldn&#039;t PCGS do this its more money for them it also the reason why you see more CAC sticker-ed PCGS slabs you have greater odds of that low end 64 coin being in a 63 holder so of coarse its high end for the grade.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>I will say that my recent submission to NGC for IKE dollars was brutal and have been wondering if they have now turned to under grading coins in that series.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
