I would think that the placement of the hologram on the coin and the condition its in would also come into play on the overall grade of the coin.
Nope. One of the reasons why ANACS is a piece of shit grading service and why I won't send them any of my coins.
You might as well get ANACS to grade a pizza if you're getting them to grade coins w/ hologram stickers.
That sucks! Are any of the other coin grading firms taking an interest in "token grading" of the crypto currency physical coins? I've never seen a non-ANACS graded crypto coin. I'm sure these companies would appreciate the revenue but I guess the volume isn't that great (just us mooks sending coins in!)
CGS they grade crypto coins as well, I have seen them grade Casascius.
There are some interesting details with cross grading between ANACS and CGS, but there are people here who know much more about that then me.
