I fully agree.  And to Nubbins point, if graded within a community sprung grading circuit/company, the knowledgeable will be able to maintain a PGP chain of custody worthy of noting. This seems to be better than any current alternative.


It seems like ANACS grades the holograms because they display them in front.

But yes, it would be awesome to make a decentralized grading service.  We can put holograms on the slabs to protect the inner ones!  Yo dawg, I herd u lik tamper-evident seals... Grin

Dammit, its almost like we have the designers (hologram my everything please), the critics, the professionals, the collectors, the enthusiasts, the reputed, the actual knowledge depth, the US/EU importers/exporters all here & active in the collectibles section.  I'd stand up and man this thing, but I am not an OG enough to warrant such a move.

Isn't there a famous table or two around these parts...  Grin Grin

I've never sent a thing into ANACS... There's a few members here who if started such a service, I would feel confident using.

Caveat: any coin/whatever maker shouldn't grade their own product.


EDIT: I always hated that they display the grade on the hologram side. like, wtf

EDIT 2:  Oh yeah, then there's the whole fact that the crypto equivalent of the red book spawned off this very board.  Okay, im sold, its just a matter of time before this all actually happens.

Agreed. Someone with years of coin collecting/grading experience + crypto collectible experience should start a small company to fill this niche. I'd use the service.

Regards,
Chris

Makes me wish I was a expert coin grader.   Seems there is a decent sized hole needing filling right now.

Ok after calling and emailing a few times, I finally got this vague, but not damning/end all sounding reply. Not embedding it cause I think it's too big. Tongue

https://i.imgur.com/aKORcnj.png

The parts I removed were about prior orders pending, nothing important.

Not going to sweat them for now, as this was the same guy who the front line phone people kept sending me to his voicemail all day as well.

The fact that we all get so many different answers is not helpful, so I guess I will follow up if you guys hear anymore.  Undecided

Please email [email protected] and ask for us, if you care that is, which I know some do not... Fair enough. Thanks.

ANACS hasnt exactly been.. how do I put it ... consistent with the grading. Personally I think we should petition other graders and then support them by using them.

ANACS have shot themselves in the foot here, the only way to make them pay is to stop giving them business

I think CGS in the UK accepts cryptos.
I’ve got a Cas Single that has been graded by them.
The only downside would be adjusting the disparity in grading results although that being said, ANACs themselves were pretty poor recently with the average scoring being so high (lower grades being bumped)...

Now if only PCGS was to grade our coins. I agree, when I saw they graded Satori chips...that was it for me.

Do you have a link? That is actually laughable.
Don’t get me wrong, I love the satori chips but they are chips... How can a coin grading service grade poker chips?

ANACS is a joke. I have never used them...never will.

Someone from here should open their own grading service. Seriously, he would be more capable than those clowns. At the same time we would also trust him with our BTC. There are a few good candidates but that is up to them to take the idea and run with it.

I don't often feel this way...but I agree with the Krog man.  I'd find much more validity in a grading service run by a crypto connoisseur, the candidates are out there. The legal hurdles...I have no idea. But I support this proposition. Thats it. Crowdfund the cryptograding ICO!  Grin

   Trust me...with the knowledge and experience of certain collectors here I am positive they will do better in grading than any ANACS grader can. They grade as a company...the person from here will probably take it more seriously as an individual and do a far better job.

So sounds like we're gonna have three "phases" of ANACS grades now!  Shocked

1) Pre 2015-ish when MS67 was considered primo grade
2) 2015-2017 when ANACS philosophy changed and MS69/70s started popping up
3) 2018+ with a wackadoodle TBD new label

Time to start peeeeeling, am i rite guys?

I occasionally toyed with the idea of sending something in in the past, but it was a lot of hassle as I'm across the water. Now these coins are worth so much there's no way in hell I'm doing it other than in person somehow, and even then I'd probably be reamed by US customs or something.

It's an idea that's off the table for me now.

The fact that a piece of plastic got a better grade than many of the coins we send in says it all...... WE DON'T CARE ABOUT YOURS COINS, SEND US MONEY!!!!!

the only reason I am pissed off is that I was going to send you 4 rolls off my next delivery for grading for fun... $2K I can handle paying for a laugh.. $6000.00 ??  forget it

but what are we all going to do for grading now? maybe the UK will be the grading capital of the world.... reverse mantis express for everyone

I was saying this to MJ a few months back.  Baby-boomers, their biggest customers, are now dying off and they’ve GOT to be feeling that (they need the bizz)?!  I’ll happily Andy Dufresne NGC a letter a day.
