<p>[QUOTE="baseball21, post: 3773699, member: 76863"]I wouldn't call it withholding it, but there are areas where the sticker can be worth several thousand or more and just like with grading in general you won't get the benefit of the doubt with anything there. Just as one example for MS 66 1926 Double Eagle there's something like 1400-1500ish of them by PCGS and NGC, but only 71 of them have stickered. That's a coin where the sticker would fetch another several thousand at auction so while many may not have been submitted, a lot almost certainly have as every incentive to try is there. They have a reputation for being tight with gold and very tight with gem gold overall. </p><p><br /></p><p>Seated stuff can seem over conservative in how they're treated, but on the bright side regardless of how it turns out you can always call them and find out the reasons. Granted as a dealer it is a little more expensive since collectors only get charged for what stickers, but you can always think of the call as like a mini crash course summer seminar[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
