<p>[QUOTE="SuperDave, post: 2695404, member: 1892"]Slabbing means absolutely nothing to me personally, so my only motivation to ever submit coins is purely for resale profit. With that in mind, for many issues a PCGS slab enjoys a market premium over NGC (no other TPG returns prices high enough to matter, with one exception I'll mention later) sufficient to offset the extra cost of PCGS slabbing. That does not apply in all cases; anecdotally I've come across many sets of auction records while researching prices where NGC coins enjoy a premium of their own over PCGS. </p><p><br /></p><p>The coin market and pricing (and the TPG's themselves) are quite changeable, and last year's truism might be this year's wrong advice. </p><p><br /></p><p>The one exception is Morgan Dollars, which I would only ever have graded by ANACS. My intended buying demographic for those would be variety enthusiasts, and ANACS is in a different league than PCGS/NGC when it comes to attributing Morgan varieties. Morgan people know this, and also know ANACS grades Morgans fairly to boot. In that specialization I would expect an ANACS coin to return on par with anyone's slabs.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
