9 grades undergraded on the one. Wish they all were like this. I seen this company grade a Morgan with an H carved into it as a MS64. So i guess this company is hit or miss!
30/UNC details
40/64
65/66

Not a bad submission if I do say so.

 

Have the pics still?

 

This was an anacs 62 in a blue holder. I also had an anacs au- 53 gold dollar upgrade to pcgs 58. I didn't agree with the 58 grade I thought 53 was accurate. I sold it and don't have an image tho. Sold it and a 53 for the same money tho there's not much spread on type 1 gold dollars in au

 

I don't play the crackout game often but I'm going to on my next pcgs submission. I have a au-58 dime that should upgrade to ms and a criminally undergraded bust half along with a ngc au 55 reeded edge I could easily see at 58

 

How does a 61 get to a 64? Isn't a 61 either luster-less or a lot of hits? The 58/64 I can see, but a 61....

 

I think " Tier " could bring higher grades. You pay for the grade, but if it's a higher tier, if not paid for, big trouble can happen ...

 

Here's a " Tier " issue I caused . ms-68 is worth 250 and thats the tier I paid for ( couldn't be worth more then 300 dollars ) MS-69 is worth 2,500. 00 dollars, which I think it will grade .

You get what you pay for ......

 

Is that really how it works? How can that be possible??

 

No its just conspiracy theories. If you put something in a lower tier than it should clearly be in you get a call or an email telling you they're charging you the grading fee for the higher tier or that you need to break it off into it's own submission at that tier.

 

Money, money, and more money .
That's for the grading companies, of course ...

 

Last year I sent 8 regrades into PCGS for my annual Collector's Club voucher. Got 3 upgrades.

1892-CC $1 45 -> 53


1889 3c PR65 -> 66


California commemorative 50c 63 -> 64

 

When I send a coin in for grading all I wan't is what i paid for, AN HONEST GRADE. I don't know if i can trust any of these tpg services. And i guess they can even switch coins on you also, i wouldn't doubt it.

 

Yeah I've had that happen. I tried to sneak a 1797 large cent in as I've had problems getting a straight grade on it thru economy. They called me on it. But it finally graded straight at vf -25

 

They play games so that you'll keep sending coins back. Bs detail grades under grading etc. it's how they ensure future business. I've never had a coin switched tho

 

I like that 92 CC. I can't understand what is was doing in a 45 holder. Even if it was an old holder, 45 is just too low.

 

I can tell you a story that happen in Michigan with a Pcgs dealer . He sent in a whole bunch of gold coins to get graded, now keep in mind he had no ideal what they would grade, to make a long story short, coin were under valued when they were mailed back to the dealer in Michigan, because he had know ideal on the grade, then the coins were stolen in the mail and dealer didn't have enough insurance, and again, to make a long story short, he blew his brains out in the basement of his home .

Who's at fault, Pcgs for not calling him to raise the insurance value, or the Pcgs dealer
