    Ok you guys here is a question for you, and I know you may have dealt with this before!
    "They say" the people that deal with coins that an NGC greated coin say MS70 is equal to a PCGS MS70. Keep in mind that we are talking about modern coins now 1990 or newer!
    So if that is the case how come when you send PCGS coins MS or PR 70 to NGC for cross over you may get only 1 out 10 to come back 70 from NGC and vice a versa!
    Is this an "ego thing" from the grading services or are they trying to say that the other company doesn't know what they are doing!
    It just doesn't make any sense to me, unless when they are grading coins they just allocate  certain 70 and the rest 69 or lower!
    I don't know! I just don't understand!
    Thanks for your  patients!

    Just wondering!!!

    By CHRISTOS,

    What's wrong with the 2011(w) silver eagle??
    Just wondering....Does anybody knows why is NGC not adding the 2011(W)struck at the West Point Mint silver eagle, since they have the 2011(s)struck at the San Fransico mint added on that set!
    I send an e-mail to NGC and they never replied!

    VERY SURPRISED!!!

    By CHRISTOS,

    Hard to believe 4 out of 5 got a 70 grade
    Hello everyone!!!
    Just checked my update on the NGC order status and found out that my ONE 25th anniversary coin set has been grated.
    Here are the results:
    2011 W MS70
    2011 P PF70
    2011 W PF70 Ultra Cameo
    2011 S MS 70
    2011 MS69
    And I'm wondering if this is typical, or did I get realy lucky!!!
    Have a great day!!!

    RE: VERY SURPRISED!!!

    By CHRISTOS,

    Some footnotes...
    Hello again everybody!!!....
    Since I don't have a chat board account, and can't answer to some of your questions indivisualy... here are some footnotes to my original journal.
    First thanks to all of you that read my journal, and especialy to those of you that replied.
    Next I want you to know that I broke down and bought the 2011 MS 70 that I was missing. I know I could of waited, and probably got it cheaper....but you know how that goes!!!
    To Cbc I want to say that I send my set to NGC 11/12/2011, It was recieved the 14th and was send back today the 21st. Used the modern special tier.
    To G-Myth here is your answer. I talked to Ms. J Garcia today at NGC, and she said that the registry will ad the set on or shortly after December 5TH After the awards dateline.
    Footnote #2: my total cost to put this set together in 70 grade including fees S+H both ways e.t.c. about $750.00. Not bad when the set is selling for $2700.00-$3000.00 or more!!!
    Again THANK TO ALL OF YOU!!!
    Good luck to all...we'll talk soon!!!
