<p>[QUOTE="RedTiger, post: 1317560, member: 19098"]Populations, registry and strength of dealer network are the big factors that drive the price differences. For some series, some grades PCGS is stricter and the pops are strong evidence of that. For a very few select series in a few grades NGC is stricter, and the pops and auction prices are evidence of that. For a good many coins at a good many grades, there isn't that much difference. Collectors need to research the particular coins they tend to buy. For the other grading companies, the gulf tends to be wider, especially if trying to sell to a dealer. Dealers may ask about the same price for coins in various holders, but tend to offer much lower on coins in certain holders. There are reasons for that, and it isn't about kool-aid or fooling people, it is about the realities of supply and demand.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
