<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 1409702, member: 112&quot;]It doesn&#039;t make me wonder at all. Believe it or not, there are some people out there who believe (the new) ANACS is just as good at grading as NGC or PCGS. Some people even prefer them.</p><p><br /></p><p>Then there are those who have no idea that there is any difference at all between any of the TPGs and believe that they all use the same grading standards.</p><p><br /></p><p>Then there are some who use ANACS simply because they can get their coins graded for less money than with NGC or PCGS.</p><p><br /></p><p>Then there are some who get coins graded by ANACS because they know that ANACS will assign a higher grade than the coin deserves thus enabling them to sell the over-graded coin to an uneducated or inexperienced collector for more money than it is really worth.</p><p><br /></p><p>The same or similar things can be said of all the various TPGs. And yet the coins are not crossed over. There are millions of coins out there in slabs other than NGC and PCGS, there always will be. That is because not everybody sees any reason at all to even attempt crossing the coins. And there are yet others who know there is no chance of the coins crossing at anywhere near the same grade.</p><p><br /></p><p>To be honest, about the only time that anyone should attempt crossing a coin is when they have seen the coin in hand and they are reasonably certain of what the cross-grade will be, and have determined that it will be worth the effort and expense of crossing the coin.</p><p><br /></p><p>Other than that, it&#039;s a waste of time to do so.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
