<p>[QUOTE="princeofwaldo, post: 6066051, member: 24091"]Well that's an interesting link, especially the one collectors interest in having Jefferson nickels re-slabbed with FS by NGC. I do not collect Jefferson nickels, but I am keenly aware of the market for them. There is no other coin (bar none) minted by the United States that is more profoundly affected by the general preference for PCGS holders over NGC than FS Jefferson nickels. In many instances, the PCGS coins in the same grade fetch many times what an NGC coin fetches. There's little mystery about why, a close inspection of NGC graded coins with the FS designation reveals all sorts of coins that would never get the designation at PCGS. In a lot of cases, Jeffersons in NGC holders are pretty much spending money. Sure glad the same phenomenon does not apply to World coins in NGC holders.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
