[QUOTE="Speedy, post: 216651, member: 705"]That is normal :D :D Even the graders do that----send the same coin 5 times and you might get 5 differnt grades. The chances are that it isn't an 67....few are..... Why not post a few clear photos of the coins on here....we have members that have worked or work at grading companies---others work for large coin companies...and others are just as good as the "pro's". Well that is kindof an opened ended question....there are hundreds of "Grading Companies", but I would suggest the top few... NGC, PCGS, ANACS, ICG. NGC and PCGS are the "top grading companies", and both will are recognized.....My opinion is that NGC is the best and most consistent. Some think that PCGS is. Sometimes it depends on what coin you are sending...sometimes PCGS is harder on a coin than NGC...but most of the time I would say it's the other way around. Many times collectors/investers think that PGCS must be better because their "slabs" seem to sell for more. In the cases where that is true it is not because they are better---it is because the bidders haven't researched the facts and learned that you don't buy the SLAB but you rather buy the COIN.
