In my time buying and selling coins I have seen millions for dollars spent on 1000&#039;s of coins that are improperly graded or attributed.</p><p><br /></p><p>I mentioned SEGS earlier because they are among the most honest of so-called 3rd tier companies yet not long ago I came across a misattributed Isabella Quarter labeled as a proof. They may want to be honest, but their inexperience makes their coins a liability.</p><p><br /></p><p>Don&#039;t take my word for it though. Look at the big auction companies. There is very definitely a reason why the top level experts in the field that run those companies reuse to sell those 3rd tier graded coins. It is also worth a note that many of those don&#039;t sell ICG coins either. ICG though does have actual expert numismatists running the place and their grading and attributions are usually on point or backed by a guarantee.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
