So here is one I saw today  PCGS has a 1960 D MS67 Washington quarter population of 10. It's value guide gives a value of $3250 for this coin in a PCGS holder. This particular coin sold for $50 at auction today. Draw your own conclusions

Label looks like it was printed on an inkjet.

the difference in prices advertised for the different slabbers should worry everyone. I can't tell the difference between a 69 and 70, can most of you? PCGS says 5k, NGC says 1750.00. Who is right?, what happens when peoples minds change on which TPG they like better? Slabbing modern coins is a rip off, in my opinion, Buy the coin not the holder... pay what YOU think it is worth, or pass it by.

Nobody can see a 70 without magnification, but anyone can see a 70 if you have it. It's easy - if you can see a mark with 5x anywhere on the coin, and the strike is not flawless, it's not a 70. With that said, if you look at a random batch of 70's from any TPG in images like Heritage's archives, you'll never buy a 70 again.

Quote: They were based in Georgia if I recall. Correct, I know CCF Member and ANA Governor Mike Ellis worked for PCI and DGS for awhile before he went to ANACS in Austin (I believe) maybe he will see the thread and comment on them here. Back in the 19990's I always liked the PCI holders and thought their grades were pretty much dead on, I have quite a few 2 cent pieces that are accurately graded in old PCI holders.

I have some new data to add... /1/ 2012.02/ 1774 (there are spaces between the / and the 1774. Very much a purple color. Has a hologram (smaller than the one shown by denco7 above) and the http://www.pcicoins.com web address /2/ & /3/ 2012.02/671x. Blue, like denco7's. No hologram seal on the reverse and no sign it was ever there!
