its MS - 70. did you check the population reports for graded 96 SAEs which are cert ms-70? Sounds high to me, I wouldnt pay that, but I havent check the stats-- maybe it's not so crazy?

whats more is, even if there are reports of such and such item selling for a certain price, temporary spikes in demand-- and short term declines in supply -- can lead to huge price spikes. I take it that is part of the numismatics game.

OR if you send him 2999 for an ounce of silver, however pretty it may be, he WILL have the fiat to GET high on crack !

Never heard of ISGgrading or however its called

Re: High on crack
 

ISG is newer than the others, I think it goes PGS -NGC -Then IGS - when looking a while ago PGS I think that's what it is gets the most money!!!

Re: High on crack
 

According to PCGS price guide, there are (zero) 1996 MS70 business strikes, so they don't even give a retail value. BEWARE!

NGC, I believe, has graded a few MS70.
SGS has probably graded thousands at MS70
IGS? I have no clue.

The big three grading companies are PCGS, NGC, and ANACS.

Re: High on crack
 

what about ANACS? Or something like that. how do you rate that service?

Re: High on crack
 

Hey, AntyEp:

ANACs was one of the first grading companies. I think they are reliable, and would trust their grade. I have a few coins graded by them.

I would not trust IGS. Knock of atleast 5 grading points and pay accordingly.
