<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Long Beard, post: 25001502, member: 108674&quot;]First, ANACS is a top grader right up there with PCGS and NGC. The issue stems from the initial years after being dropped by the American Numismatic Association when they became independent. The grading was questionable, but in time it improved dramatically. And like happens with any company, a few negative responses cancel out thousands and thousands of positives which take years to recover from. From years of experience at coin shows and local shops, ANACS graded coins are spot on when comparing them side by side with the top two firms. As for ICGS, again seeing them side by side, the grades more often than not are one or two higher comparatively. In the end, I buy the coin not the holder or brand. Submission wise, ANACS. I can not justify the additional membership fee with NGC or PCGS.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
