<p>[QUOTE=&quot;krispy, post: 1076290, member: 19065&quot;]<b>Darryl:</b> do you know if <a href="http://www.usgrading.com/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.usgrading.com/" rel="nofollow">USGC</a>&nbsp; is related in any way to <a href="http://www.cganotes.com/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.cganotes.com/" rel="nofollow">CGA</a>? The holders looked very similar to me on that site. </p><p><br /></p><p><b>For the OP:</b> both companies I would steer clear of for submitting notes, but if you know how to grade a note yourself that is in one of those holders and you know how much to spend on the notes found within the holders, there is nothing wrong with purchasing notes holdered by either of those two companies. It is just important to understand the differences in grading standards from PMG and PCGS Currency to these lesser known grading companies. Some collectors are successful at finding bargains in lesser known companies holders and resubmitting to the bigger names for more accurate grades, authenticity and respectability.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
