<p>[QUOTE="SPP Ottawa, post: 2318353, member: 39508"]This might be true for circulated grades, but when it comes to mint state bronze coins (NFLD or Canada), I, and others (including the top two PCGS NFLD 1c registry collectors - whom I know personally) have found the complete opposite to be true. PCGS is much more stricter on colour, eye appeal and grade. Try buying any ICCS MS-63+ "red" NFLD or Canadian coins sight unseen from any Canadian auction - you might be surprised at the grades despite the questionable eye appeal, colour, and what is called "red"...[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
