[QUOTE="benveniste, post: 1662268, member: 25547"]I suggest treating PCI graded coins as raw. I own a few accurately graded coins in PCI slabs, but also three total misses: -- A 1900 Indian in an MS64 Green Slab. PCGS body bagged this one as questionable color. -- A Pan Pac Half in a AU58 cleaned "red" slab. PCI totally missing an obvious scratch on the coin. -- A 1984 Barber Quarter in a Green Label PR64 slab. I convinced myself that the scratches on this coin were on the holder. They weren't. It was about a $500 mistake. I can post photos of any of the three coins on request. So a PCI coin graded MS66 could come back from NGC or PCGS as anything from MS66 down to AU details, depending on who they had grading at the time.[/QUOTE]
