<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Sallent, post: 3199121, member: 76194&quot;]I was told by someone a while back that NGC graders make around $100,000, but those are the graders who handle the routine stuff and grade hundreds of coins a day (usually the slabbed bullion and common US stuff).</p><p><br /></p><p>A top grader though, the ones that handle the high end and unusual coins (ie. actually get to see the interesting stuff), I&#039;d imagine their salaries would be much higher.</p><p><br /></p><p>I can&#039;t see why the salary for the Ancients graders couldn&#039;t be similar, especially when you consider it costs around $25 to submit an ancient worth less than $300, and $40 to submit an ancient worth more than $300 but less than $3000. And that&#039;s without any of the extras they offer (extra thick holders, photos, etc.) <b>I already figured that it would cost me close to $500 to get my 12 Caesar&#039;s set slabbed</b>. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie9" alt=":eek:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> That&#039;s 1/6 of the total I paid for it. At that price I think I&#039;ll upgrade some of the coins before sending the set in. It&#039;s not worth it when some of the coins are less than aVF, so it&#039;s something I plan to get done, but I won&#039;t slab them until I&#039;m satisfied I won&#039;t be doing any more upgrades to my 12 Caesars set.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
