Message:: [QUOTE="Kryptonitecomic, post: 1227250, member: 26784"]There is most certainly some truth to what you have posted wingedLiberty but I do believe it goes both ways between PCGS/NGC. I also think Leadfoot's point about not seeing the rim comes into play...maybe less so with the edgeview holders but it certainly could keep some coins from crossing. I don't believe it's a myth or rumor that pcgs tends to grade a bit stricter in an effort to improve their standing in the hobby but I also don't think it is nearly as devious in nature as the pcgs naysayers would have one believe. There is a trade off....grade too strict and folks will send there coins to NGC so it's a fine line. As for me....every single coin that I have sent to PCGS in an NGC holders for crossover has not crossed...100% DNC...and of those that I cracked out....90% did holder at PCGS at the same grade as on the NGC holder. Mind you the sample size was small...around 10 coins and I have not tried the reverse with sending PCGS coins to NGC so I might find similar results I was just providing my personal results as they relate to the discussion.[/QUOTE]
