<p>[QUOTE="dannic113, post: 1362573, member: 35203"]It's hair splitting. Ever take a look at a CDN and see certified coin market indicator? It shows percentages of high low and average bid prices that certified coins from 7 or 8 TPG's achieve compared to the CDN coin seen grading prices. However many look at that number and use it to determine market share. In other words the higher or lower a grader is percent wise to the CDN prices the public preceives it as that company is better or more trustworthy in regard to not only the grades but also how much they can get for the numismatic item at a later date. Same goes for PMG (ngc's note grader) or PCGS. Truth of the matter is none of it really matters as most times NGC/PMG and PCGS are even or +/-1% of each other. I have both PCGS and PMG notes and find that the PMG the asthetics of the item fonts and boarders are more eye pleasing but the font of the grade and epq etc. attributes are better from PCGS. It comes down to personal preferrence or as krispy says the monitary motivations. Also the last time I looked (a while back) Stack's auctions seemed to have a boat load more of PMG than PCGS so that could also explain HA's love of PCGS.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
