TONYH-migration Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 I have a 1924-S peace dollar MS65 graded by PCS. Can anyone tell me about this company? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nutmeg Coin Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 It must be missing the "grading" which is what the "G" stands for in PCGS. Other than that I can't give clarity on the issue. You could do a google search on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raisethis2 Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 PCS is one of the many less than reputable grading services that popped up in the past 10 years or so. Their work is so horribly inconsistent that the Grey Sheet doesn't even list them as a legit service. The coin in question might be properly graded, then again, chances are it's off quite a bit (high or low). A picture of the coin in question might help us help you. Welcome to the boards.

RWB Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 If the plastic holder says: "NGC" or "PCGS" or "ANACS" you're OK. Anything else ranges from suspect to meaningless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ANACS & SEGS...........buy the coin not the slab. Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Smith Guesser Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 You gotta love the names of some of the basement slabbers: NCG NCGS NNC PGS There's a good list of them here: http://www.ebay.com/gds/Guide-to-Third-Party-Grading-Services-for-coins-/10000000004417463/g.html I'm surprised there isn't a PGCS or an ANASC.

TONYH-migration Posted March 1, 2015 Author Share Posted March 1, 2015 I thank all of you for replying. I had to go out of town for a few days and just got back. I'll get my daughter to see about posting a pic of coin, I'm not too good on computers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kurtdog Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 I have a 1924-S peace dollar MS65 graded by PCS. Can anyone tell me about this company? There's nothing wrong with the company and nothing wrong with their grades. The thing that's wrong is, wrong slabs. That's all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Conder101 Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 I'd like to. I still keep gathering information, but I spend too much time online, and I haven't been able to make myself sit down and actually do the writing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
