ICG is honestly better than ANACS at this point. ICCS is fine for Canadian coins if someone was looking at those but I would treat anything that wasn't Canadian as raw Report this Post to the Staff

I have seen too much pure crap in their holders. If they are trying to turn things around, I haven't seen it come through on my end yet. At least for the series I follow.

The only reason I started using ICG over ANACS on stuff not worth the PCGS fee was because of how all over the place ANACS had been. Neither are a teir one company on the TPG hierarchy but between the two the stronger graders are in Tampa in my opinion and I'm a full on convert to them over ANACS for the lower value stuff. Also ICG wont take two months to grade your coins when you use a special Edited by basebal21 01/25/2018 10:50 pm Report this Post to the Staff

MikeF Pillar of the Community United States 3479 Posts	Posted 01/25/2018 11:15 pm @Baseball, sounds you had an efficiency problem with ANACS. Makes sense. Understood on the lower value end of the spectrum. Hairs stand up on the back of my neck when I see a Seated dollar in one of their holders. An auction company had one of those a week ago. Said he was debating whether to crack it out but decided against it for fear of problems being discovered. I can't remember what it sold for but it was well under market value. Thing is, it had pretty toning. Edited by MikeF 01/26/2018 12:08 am Report this Post to the Staff
