Message:: [QUOTE="coinman0456, post: 1271690, member: 18177"]There is enough factual data out there to prove your assertion, however not fully. I do concur with you to a point. The statement is far to general to apply to every PCGS Graded Coin and every PCGS Valuation.  The Registry factor has created a " sub market " which has significantly and negatively impacted some valuations of Coins in both camps, but I believe the larger field is with some PCGS Graded Coins. One must remember, that  " Marketability "  is a major factor for collectors, even if they don't place that issue in the top 3 reasons when they purchase any XYZ coin. Many a collection had to be re-distributed to the open market because of major unforeseen situations, by their owners or heirs, and it is my opinion that some PCGS COINS vs the same coins in an NGC holder, don't hold their value as well as those NGC Coins seem to be much more marketable and having strong re-sale data.  Auction archives is a great source of information.[/QUOTE]
