[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 400752, member: 112"]This has been discussed ad infinitum. No doubt, it will be again and again and again. I can tell you some facts and I can tell you some opinion. First the facts - when it comes to special designations like FS, FBL, FH, DMPL and the like - NGC is absolutely tougher. All you have to do is read their qualifications to see this for yourself. Now the opinions - when it comes to regular grading some will say that one company or the other is tougher on this coin or that coin. But virtually no one who is truly familiar with the grading practices of both companies will tell you that either company is tougher on all coins. Now a question for you. Does who is tougher really matter if the companies in question are inconsistent with their grading ? Rather obviously it does not matter. So the real question becomes - which company is the most consistent with their grading ? Again, a matter of opinion - but my opinion is that NGC is far, far more consistent with their grading than PCGS is.[/QUOTE]
