Message:: [QUOTE="Breakdown, post: 736151, member: 19532"]Hey Jeff Your question is just a bit too vague to be answered. They are both good companies in my opinion, but each may be better for certain things. I collect Walkers and Buffalos and don't feel qualified to comment on other series. As an example, NGC pops show almost three times as many MS67's for the 1947 Walker as does PCGS. An NGC MS67 on average will sell for less than half what a PCGS MS67 does. This is a fairly dramatic spread which will be considerably less for some other issues. If I had a coin I was absolutely convinced would slab as a 67, I would send it to PCGS.  There are other examples where the spread between the prices between the two companies is much smaller. And there are some issues where you could definitely argue that the spread is too wide to be justified. There are also some fine dealers on here (see Mark Feld, the Penny Lady and the Dutchman as some examples) who know what they are doing and sell both NGC and PCGS coins. Why? Because there are some awfully nice coins in NGC holders, as well as in PCGS holders.  Sorry I can't be more helpful but I think we need to know exactly what kind of coins you are asking about.[/QUOTE]
