<p>[QUOTE="definer, post: 1836113, member: 39713"]I might be wrong here, but I doubt the graders ever see the package a coin comes in. I sat in a grading seminar by NGC earlier this year and the impression I got was that they have so many coins to go through that they get them from their receiving department in flips. That's confirmed by the PCGS grading video on the on the PCGS site <a href="http://www.pcgs.com/process.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.pcgs.com/process.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.pcgs.com/process.html</a></p><p><br /></p><p>If they process, as the video states, 100K coins per month that means they grade somewhere around 5000 per day assuming a 5 day work week. Given that graders are the highest paid workers in the grading chain, I doubt they pay them to handle anything other than a flip. They'll never know that it might have come out of OGP, an air-tite, or anything else.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
