<p>[QUOTE="NorthKorea, post: 1725315, member: 29643"]In Doug's defense, Tim, I don't know of many who submit non-modern world coins to PCGS. Now that they're requiring them to be submitted under Secure Plus ($5-$8 more per tier?), I would assume people will simply opt to submit their world coins through NGC. It's entirely possible that the only Secure Plus graded coins are going to end up those that are under free submissions or submitted at the highest tiers, where you have no choice. Also, the market for US graded world coins isn't as great as the market for US coins, simply because US TPGs use more lenient grading standards than the home country that the coins originate from. Now, this doesn't mean to say LCS owners in the home country over-grade coins, merely that the actual standards for BU in the US would fall into AU+ for other countries.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
