<p>[QUOTE=&quot;mark_h, post: 179121, member: 3726&quot;]This is the only post I will make on this - not even sure if I will come back and read any additional responses.&nbsp; Why just slam PCGS(not directed to anyone) ?&nbsp; I could slam all three and I would not be suprised if ngcsucks.com and anacssucks.com gets started.&nbsp; All top tier graders have their issues.&nbsp; Any coin can be body bagged or rejected by any grading company.&nbsp; I even read one auction on ebay that called the coins PCI rejects.&nbsp; So even if another company grades problem coins it does not matter.&nbsp; As collectors you buy the coin not the slab.&nbsp; So even in a NGC slab it could still be a problem coin.&nbsp; It seems like most people send there coins to PCGS to try to score the big grade and the bucks that come with them.&nbsp; IF not then why didn&#039;t you just use NGC or ANACS, or any of the others to start with.&nbsp; I really think it is funny when any of the grading companies get slammed just because someone did not get the grade they expected or wanted.&nbsp; Again - everyone makes mistakes - yet the public is unforgiving to all graders and the mint.&nbsp; Nobody stops to think - when I bought this raw coin I made the mistake.&nbsp; Oh well - I know I have made a few and some on purpose.&nbsp; I have bought cleaned and one polished coin just because I like the details on the coin.&nbsp; My father is so intent on joining PCGS and sending in some of his morgans.&nbsp; He understands that PCGS might think all of them have some problems and can be body bagged.&nbsp; We are going to sit down and go over all of them to pick out the best - comparing to the ones already graded.&nbsp; I am trying to put it off - I think he has some nice raw morgans, but still no telling what PCGS will do.</p><p><br /></p><p>Here is one <a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/1872-INDIAN-HEAD-CENT-ANACS-VF-20_W0QQitemZ110072384294QQihZ001QQcategoryZ41085QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://cgi.ebay.com/1872-INDIAN-HEAD-CENT-ANACS-VF-20_W0QQitemZ110072384294QQihZ001QQcategoryZ41085QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem" rel="nofollow">auction</a> where ANACS blew chunks and here is one where <a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/1866-Shield-Nickel-NGC-XF40-Great-Type-Coin_W0QQitemZ260065186849QQihZ016QQcategoryZ11952QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem#ebayphotohosting" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://cgi.ebay.com/1866-Shield-Nickel-NGC-XF40-Great-Type-Coin_W0QQitemZ260065186849QQihZ016QQcategoryZ11952QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem#ebayphotohosting" rel="nofollow">NGC</a> blew chunks.&nbsp; I think ANACS missed that big old nick on the rim and NGC just flat out over-graded that shield nickel.&nbsp; IMHO - I disagree with both coins grades. So whats the big deal!</p><p><br /></p><p>Just my own opinion and a rant for today.&nbsp; Happy new year! <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
