<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Conder101, post: 699078, member: 66&quot;]A couple things to notice in those guarantees.&nbsp; NGC and PCGS both talk about fair market value with them being the sole determiners of just what the FMV is.&nbsp; (Which is interesting considering they both publish price guides claiming to tell you what the value of your coins are, but if you take them up on a grading guarantee all of a sudden their own price guide is no where close to FMV and you will be offered significantly less.)&nbsp;&nbsp; ANACS claims its offer is based on an unnamed price guide and it won&#039;t cover copper coins.&nbsp; At least SEGS claims it&#039;s reimbursement will be based on actual recent transactions.</p><p><br /></p><p>And if you think the grading guarantees are shaky you should have seen the authenticity guarantees&nbsp; Until a couple years ago there weren&#039;t any written guarantees of authenticity.&nbsp; Thanks to the efforts of Majorbigtime and myself PCGS now has a fairly decent one.&nbsp; I haven&#039;t looked at NGC&#039;s lately to see if they have followed suit.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
