Message:: [QUOTE="Beefer518, post: 2945291, member: 87737"]I prefer NGC. I collect early silver commems, and NGC is much tighter on them then PCGS from what I have seen. I have passed on numerous PCGS 63's and 64's because I felt them to be closer to 60-62's. The overgrading (of that series IMO), and made me shy away from PCGS (although I do own quite a few), and look for the NCG coins. There was a recent thread about a Norse in a PCGS MS64 slab, and I added my NGC MS62. My 62 was in much nicer condition, and everyone agreed (except those that thought it could have been a strike issue on the 64). I think PCGS overgrades more frequently then NGC or ANACS, and I think that's why dealers like them, and promote them. I also believe that the majority of PCGS buyers are not collectors, and trust the grade on the slab more then their eyes.[/QUOTE]
