<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Paul M., post: 3744364, member: 73165&quot;]I think I&#039;m in the 11-20 bunch.&nbsp; This year, all my submissions have been to ANACS, because they&#039;re all for my personal collection.&nbsp; And, in the case of the Dan Carr pieces, they&#039;re the ideal choice.</p><p><br /></p><p>When it comes to my personal collection, I submit to them because I think their grades are accurate, they run frequent specials for like $7-10/coin, and they frequent a couple regional coin shows near me.&nbsp; Their customer support is good, and Cindy is always good for a chat if she&#039;s not busy taking someone&#039;s order.&nbsp; Their holder protects my coins better than an Air-tite, so, all in all, I consider it a decent way to go for my personal coins.</p><p><br /></p><p>For coins I intended to resell, I&#039;d either go raw (ancients, cheap world and US coins), or submit to either PCGS or NGC.&nbsp; One exception might be if I ran across a contemporary counterfeit I wanted to sell, and that would, obviously, go to ICG, as would Gallery Mint replicas (because ANACS won&#039;t holder them).</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Another WOW for this coin!&nbsp; I&#039;m having a hard time seeing why it&#039;s a 62 as well.&nbsp; I can only find 4 marks on the reverse of any significance, and nothing much else that should hold it back.&nbsp; On the plus side, it has that nice toning and all that cool clashing.&nbsp; Like [USER=36248]@geekpryde[/USER] said, this looks like a no-brainer 63 at least.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Do you think it&#039;s fairly graded?&nbsp; And, more importantly, will you ping me when you go to sell it? <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>This is my MO as well.&nbsp; I do pretty well freeing coins from AT holders that got a bum rap.&nbsp; My grades are generally within a point, but I did get burned on a Classic Head half cent I expected to come back from ANACS as a 63, but got AU 55 details.&nbsp; It has nice surfaces, except for a patch of hairlines in the obverse fields, which I&#039;m sure is what they dinged it for.&nbsp; I may try that one again.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>That&#039;s quite a cherry pick!&nbsp; Is there a particular series you look at mostly, or do you just have some top CPG varieties memorized?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
