<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Mike Thornton, post: 4970988, member: 105289&quot;]I&#039;m members of both NGC and PCGS.&nbsp; One thing that moved me to joining was that I received grading credits that nearly equaled my membership fee at NGC.&nbsp; So from my perspective, I paid for coin grading and got a free membership plus discounts on supplies and such.&nbsp; In addition, the membership allows me to start a Registry Set/s.&nbsp; NGC will allow you to include PCGS coins in your set after they review the submission, but PCGS does not accept other TPG&#039;s graded coins in their sets.&nbsp; Something to consider. </p><p><br /></p><p>As for &quot;Who&#039;s best?&quot;.&nbsp; It depends on what your after and ultimately subjective.&nbsp; NGC and PCGS tent to be harder on the grading, (in my experience), then ANACS or ICG.&nbsp; I have slabbed coins from all.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>So if your plan is resale for the best price, NGC and PCGS tend to bring the better prices.&nbsp; If your after graded coins that you can rely on the grade?&nbsp; You should keep to these four.&nbsp; Just my opinion.&nbsp; I agree with most, buy the coin first, not the plastic.&nbsp; Based on your &quot;end game&quot;, the plastic would be a secondary consideration.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
