<p>[QUOTE=&quot;physics-fan3.14, post: 2544442, member: 19165&quot;]I think that had more to do with the fact that PCGS&#039; foreign grading sucks, and it is widely ridiculed. Why would anyone submit foreign coins to PCGS? And why would anyone buy them? Every single foreign coin I&#039;ve seen in PCGS holders has been off by at least a point (and often 3 or 4). NGC is far more highly regarded in the foreign coin realms, to the point that PCGS is an afterthought. </p><p><br /></p><p>As for domestic material, each has their strong points. Any time we are talking about a designation (FS, FBL, *, PL, etc.) NGC is miles ahead of PCGS. No competition, in my opinion. PCGS is vastly more popular with modern coins because of the registry. PCGS is currently looser on toned coins as well (I&#039;ve seen more that I would consider questionable toning in PCGS than NGC). Early US is better in NGC (they are more conservative, especially with coins with surface issues). It all depends on what you collect and what you are looking at. </p><p><br /></p><p>*this post, even more than others, is largely my biased opinion, and should be taken as such*[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
