Things are a mess around here, in a funny kind of way. Here's my own little contribution to substance. I'm going to have to show off a bit, but unapologetically, and unavoidably. This could also be educational, and fun. Or not. OK, Anka, and anybody else who'd like to respond. I know you...

Grading Companies by RWF
Of the eBay accepted coin graders (PCGS; NGC; ANACS; ICG) do you find that some are better for a certain series of coins than their competitors? Of course, for Canadian coins I prefer ICCS.
