are you telling me APCGS intentionally used that name to deceive people ? or is that an assumption ? I'm sorry I have alot of questions as I cant really find any answers on google.

Did PCGS get listed in the year it was created ? I think most firms start out unlisted for a couple of years and then get listed to create more capital. Again I am unsure about PCGS and APCGS history. only trying to get facts rather than "hear say".

cheers team for any help :)

so much hate ? what ever happened to supporting the new firm ?
i mean a bit of competition in the industry never hurts anyone :)
as long as this shane guy uses positive selling tactics and refrain from unwanted actions its shud all be good right ?

Or are we all just against change ?

Yea the owner should definitely refrain from such activities,
its just weird that PCGS and APCGS both originated and constructed by coin dealers but aPCGS gets alot of criticism for that ?
i am sure when PCGS started they had similar problems or criticsm that aPCGS gets today.

Am I the only one that gets confused about this whole debate?

From the metal bend it might be PMD,
but I am not a coin expert so wait for the pros to help you out :)
I have seen many instances where everyone says PMD... it is then sold at a cheap price and turns out to be a real error worth thousands.
Always have an expert help u out
good luck
