Get Your Coins Professionally Graded!



We send coins to the following 4 companies for grading - Come in for a price list and more detailed explanation of the process

P.C.G.S: P.C.G.S (Professional Coin grading Service) is revered as one of the best and most respected grading companies. Once they give your coin a grade - little to no one will dispute the grade. This grading company will grade all U.S. and a large selection of World coins. However, P.C.G.S will not grade cleaned coins. Often times, they will "bodybag" a coin which means send it back to its owner without being graded. Yes, they still charge the full fee even if your coin is returned to you. P.C.G.S also typically has the longest turnaround time. If you are not in a hurry, believe your coins to have no type of damage and want them graded by the most respected graders - this is a good choice for you.

N.G.C: N.G.C (Numismatic Guaranty Corporation) is also well respected and some argue they are more strict with their grading than P.C.G.S. For this reason, they are one of the best and most popular grading companies alongside of PCGS. Their rates are also very similar although they charge slightly less for economical grades and more for ultra rarities. N.G.C will also not grade cleaned or mishandled coins and will also charge you the full amount whether it is sent back in a certified slab or a "bodybag". NGC is typically faster at grading than PCGS. They have also come out with a new scratch resistant edgeview holder!

ANACS: ANACS, established in 1972 is one of the oldest grading services available. Their certified coins are not revered as high as PCGS or NGC but we use them as an option because they will grade problem coins to include, scratched, cleaned or other types of damage. If you would like to get your coin(s) graded but are pretty sure they have some type of damage, ANACS is the way to go. ANACS is currently taking longer than usual time frames to complete orders.

C.A.C: CAC (Certified Acceptance Corporation) sets the standard for premium quality for a certified coin. The CAC green label signifies that a coin has met Certified Acceptance Corporation's stringent grading standards. In other words, they only add their sticker of quality to a coin that has already been professionally graded and encapsulated. If your certified coin has superior qualities for its grade, it may qualify for a CAC sticker which can not only increase its grades acceptance but also fetch a higher premium when sold. They are currently only accepting NGC and PCGS graded coins.
