<p>[QUOTE=&quot;JPeace$, post: 1866206, member: 42727&quot;]I agree with the approach of viewing all coins for there merit.&nbsp; As CAC and I&#039;m sure others have pointed out, there are three tiers inside a grade.&nbsp; I&#039;m on the lookout for the A grade (whether there&#039;s a CAC sticker or not), thus I skeptically view every coin before placing bids.&nbsp; My approach is &quot;prove to me this coin deserves the grade&quot;.&nbsp; For sake of brevity in my last post, I didn&#039;t include all the exceptions.&nbsp; I tried to cover as much ground as concisely as possible.</p><p><br /></p><p>I do look at ANACS slabs, but I tend to focus on their older slabs when there grading was held in higher regard.&nbsp; I generally don&#039;t pay attention to any other low level grader.</p><p><br /></p><p>Interesting discussion since my post.&nbsp; I was generally commenting on the fact that one member here continually is pushing the merits of SEGS, when the marketplace feels completely different.&nbsp; The whole conspiracy theory about the top two TPG&#039;s and also now eBay is laughable.&nbsp; BTW, I do not view our government as infallible. My current view on the top two parties is that they resemble WWE wrestling.&nbsp; Great drama for the cameras, but behind doors they are sharing $600+ bottles of scotch and laughing all the way to the bank.</p><p><br /></p><p>If you ever do go to sell a coin in a non NGC or PCGS holder, don&#039;t be surprised at the value the market places upon the coin.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
