Quote from: 'Bigfellani5' pid='35882' dateline='1385809537'What echidna says is why pcgs is flawed. Honestly I don't trust then picking cleaned coins. The stupidity of the market going after coins in a hunk of plastic put there under a flawed system. They cost people a lot of money by body bagging perfectly good coins and also by the market over paying on coins in a hunk of plastic.
i wonder how many people have read the pcgs official guide to coin grading and counterfeit detection  by scott travers , before they make uneducated comments , read the book learn send coins for grading and then comment
for those interested the guide is available at amazon .com

Travers' book is one of the better ones out there on counterfeit detection.

yesterday, whilst doing the tourist thing here in New York, came across stacks rare coins. Naturally went for a look, guy was very helpful, i brought up ngc V pcgs . simply his opinion backs up what Markn said earlier ... ngc do better at world coins than pcgs
it does not resolve our conundrum but the more informed we are the better result .!
slightly off topic ..may go back and buy a 1881s ms64 Morgan dollar- a souvenir !
