Message:: [QUOTE="JCB1983, post: 1354759, member: 23885"]Good observation detecto.  If you have too much time on your hands and study eBay/HA trends like I do, you would catch on to this as well.  I have made a few posts about this.  Especially in the slabbed/DDO-DDR + Natural toned department.  I believe the economy is drawing people to Franklins.  They want nice MS coins that won't break the bank.  Also, it is what I consider a slam dunk series when it comes to Marketing.  NGC has higher standards in the FBL department.  PCGS has more toned Frankie’s.  Then you have all of the DDO's/DDR's that PCGS never found.  I find this highly ironic.  No joke, I find about 1 DDR a week in a PCGS Slab.  Almost never in an NGC slab.  Now how could this happen?  3 officials agree on the grade, but all three miss the DDR?  This might be a brilliant marketing scheme.  The PCGS slabs actually draw more attention (besides FBL variety) because they apparently miss DDR's.  That is like letting metal detector enthusiasts loose on an ancient battlefield.  I may be impartial because I love the series, but I know what you are talking about.  It is a feeling.  You don't have to have 25+ years experience to understand this. ~jason[/QUOTE]
