[QUOTE="cj415, post: 7994970, member: 30598"]I always buy the coin and not the grade, but not everyone operates that way, so here is what I'm wondering... Does it make sense to send a coin with details in for grading to a company that will still assign in a numerical grade? I could send the coin to PCGS, but I'm sure it will come back as details-cleaned. Or, I could send the coin to ANACS and will will come back with a numerical grade and the details designation. I prefer PCGS/NGC graded coins since they are tier-one graders. However, for a coin that I'm going to flip (likely on eBay) does it make more sense to send it to ANACS, which is still a reputable grader, but is often considered a tier-2 TPG. The coin is an 1895-O Morgan, which I'm guessing will hit a 50 or 55, but looks cleaned. Higher grades of this coin really start to climb in price. I personally think that a numerical grade from ANACS will help me sell it easier since some people still buy the grade, not the coin. Thoughts?[/QUOTE]
