A Grading Question

{quote]I'd like to ask you, as you probably know, what grading companies are these?

In the first picture the first three and fifth ones are from ANI (American Numismatic Institute) a "fly-by-night" company that first showed up I think 8 months to a year ago. The third slab is a first generation slab from the company from before they started placing barcodes on the slab.

Slab number four (and the third slab in the second picture) are from Hallmark Coin Grading Service (Not to be confused with Hallmark Currency Grading Service which was an early service from the mid 1970's, or HALLMARK which was a respected company that operated from 1988 to 1991.) This Hallmark was a self slabbing company on the same lines as SGS and almost as much of a joke. I can't tell for sure but it looks like possibly two different generations of holder.

Slab six is UNC (United Numismatic Company or Certification I'm not sure which at the moment) UNC first showed up about a year and a half to two years ago. Another "fly-by-night" which I don't believe lasted too long.

In the second picture the first slab apears to be INB (International Numismatic Bureau) Another "fly-by-night" from over a year ago. It is using a Coin World shell for its holder.

The last one is still something of an enigma. I have seen several of these all with variations in the labels. The problem is the label design keeps changing slightly as do the initials and even the name the initials supposedly represents. I can't decide if it is one company that keeps altering their labels or three different companies with near identical holders and labels. (Which would almost certainly means they are connected in some way.)

I did get an email from you on the 15th, sorry I haven't answered it yet. I'm always behind on correspondence, and I've been in the hospital for most of th past week with a sudden illness. (In fact I'm still in the hospital, but I've been able to tap into their switchboard network and get back on-line now.)
