<p>[QUOTE="miker, post: 51143, member: 3054"]When I have talked to dealers at coin shows, it seems like it's a personal preference as to NGC or PCGS. I have tried to pin a dealer down as to why but they usually come up with "PCGS is the oldest" or "NGC is the official grading service of the ANA" but there doesn't seem to be any real reason (better grading, more qualified graders, etc). I agree that an ungraded set would be your best buy since the bullion coins seem to be at least MS67 right out of the box. And if you buy a graded set, you will have to spend more on the 'upkeep' as the years go by.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
