<p>[QUOTE="Kentucky, post: 25305712, member: 33176"][USER=156649]@Rubal Dasgupta[/USER] welcome to CT. Most members here are real (kind-of in some cases) coin collectors. Concerning grading, there are 4 (perhaps 5) reputable grading companies, PCGS, NGC, ANACS and ICG (and newcomer CAC). All of these would have similar standards for the PF grades and that's about it. The market will set the value for the coins. If I were offered a PF70 coin with each of the 4 or 5 labels, I would probably pick the cheapest, all being of comparable quality. An old saying is "buy the coin, not the slab", with the admonition that price will vary with the grader to some extent. Prices may be all over the map since vendors can ask whatever they want, but since you are dealing with bullion slabs, I would go with the price. Stick around and I'm sure you will hear from lots of other people. Edit: perhaps I err in saying bullion coins <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
