I notice about 4% of coins graded are 'bodybagged', the majority of which are for having been cleaned.

That doesn't surprise me at all.
Novice submitters  (myself included) will always add to this statistic due to inexperience :ok:

The crossover percentage  is very interesting ,  ok only  1 in 3  make it :-/ i will keep my  ngc slabs  at home then

Perhaps it's a conspiracy theory.  Perhaps it isn't.  But if the rumour mill is correct if you want the highest possibility of success crossing over your NGC coins at PCGS don't send them in while they are still in the NGC slab.

I noticed that as well. When they talk about the % that successfully crossed over are they including those who agreed to accept a lower grade (like NGC MS65 might become a PCGS MS64).
I'd love to see a breakdown of the crossover grades. How many crossed at an equal level, or 1 or 2 or more grade drops. Also a breakdown of  NGC, ANACS and the other few reputable TPGS.
Might even be a number that cross at a higher grade,especially from early rattlers.
Does the crossover only include the top tier graders or the basement slabbers as well. That could skew the results,maybe 50% plus for NGC but overall 31% because APCGS and the other basement slabbers get a 1% crossover.
My NGC slabs will also remain at home.
