Title: Re: [WTS] Loaded Silver Casascius 1 BTC MS68 PL Post by: elmejorrematador on July 01, 2024, 01:05:16 PM Just curious if any of us know the criteria these coin grading companies use when grading coins. I know in the past ICG seemed to have more liberal grading standards and maybe an MS68 at PCGS could be a MS69 at ICG.
This looks like such a beautiful coin, just wondering what about the coin makes it not an MS69?

I have been told that they take the hologram condition into consideration when evaluating the coin so this may factor in with the given grade of MS68PL I would say PCGS is more liberal considering they give grades to plastic chips.. lol :P I would take an ICG MS68 over a PCGS MS69 any day....

Interesting, I wish we had a little more knowledge about that. It definitely bugs me when a hologram is centered poorly, i wonder if that has anything to do with it or it is more about scratches on the holo.

There are several who made small fortunes buying and cracking early ANACS slabs (pre 2017),sending for regrade at ANACS, selling coin with new higher grade. This was very popular for Casascius coins. |
