<p>[QUOTE=&quot;NotSure, post: 816940, member: 20034&quot;]Funny...I bought a &#039;set&#039; of &#039;56 Washington Q&#039;s from them 6 months or so ago, for a very very reasonable price (I guess noone wanted it due to the coins being in an SGS &#039;slab&#039;). They were both graded MS70, 1 regular reverse, and 1 Type B reverse. The Type B looked pretty nice...I figured MS64/65. Sent it off to PCGS, where it graded at MS65 (the normal reverse fit in nicely into my Dansco...matches the rest of the set at a 64/65 also, and it looks good in the Dansco). No, I am smart enough to KNOW it wouldn&#039;t grade MS70 at a REAL grading service, at least it DID grade gem 65 (they DO take decent images, I&#039;ll give them that)....hence my buying the set. Other than that, yeah, they do grade by their own standard (being either MS70 or PR70). Pretty easy standard, if you ask me. That&#039;ll be more than likely the one and only time I EVER purchase an SGS &#039;graded&#039; coin, unless I can find another rip like that one. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Oh, the only other &#039;plus&#039; to SGS is it&#039;s mighty easy to crack a coin from. Basically, just look at it and it falls apart.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
