<p>[QUOTE=&quot;johnmilton, post: 7561556, member: 101855&quot;]You really seem to obsessed with making NGC the top service by interfering with the way they run their registry, [USER=15309]@Lehigh96[/USER]. That is not going to change anything. A great many collectors admire the NGC stance on giving PCGS coins a close to equal footing with the NGC slab on their registry. They say, with justification, that their registry is more reflective of the collections that exist as opposed to the PCGS registry which allows only their product. Once again we shall agree to disagree. </p><p><br /></p><p>A fairly well-know dealer once said to me, &quot;There is not much difference in the grading room&quot; (between PCGS and NGC). From what I have seen, that statement is mostly correct. The trouble is many of the good NGC coins that are properly graded get crossed over to PCGS. That makes the NGC population look worse than it really would be if their coins didn&#039;t get crossed. </p><p><br /></p><p>Unfortunately there are a small number of NGC graded coins that leave me asking myself, &quot;NGC, why did you do that?&quot; I&#039;m talking about coins that have really been messed with. Those pieces should have gone into body bags in the old days or &quot;details&quot; holders today. It seems to happen more with gold, and sometimes the questionable grading has a huge effect on the value.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
