<p>[QUOTE="Conder101, post: 770411, member: 66"]Each grading service grades to THEIR OWN STANDARDS not ANA standards. They may be "guided" by the ANA standards but that is all. If the coin was cracked out and submitted to PCGS the chances are it would NOT come back a 70. On the other hand if you crack out a PCGS 70 and resubmit it, the chances are IT would not come back as a 70 again either.</p><p><br /></p><p>Having said that, it really doesn't matter if it is really a 70 or not because no one is going to be willing to pay 70 money for it unless it is in an NGC or PCGS holder no matter how nice it is. (and they WILL pay 70 money for one even if it doesn't make the grade if it is in the NGC or PCGS slabs.) Unfortunately at that level it is more about marketing than the actual quality of the coin and the only thing that matters is the plastic.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
