    Hi team,
    Does anyone know of and/or recommend a proper coin grading service in Sydney?

    Hi,
    Not sure if you’re after PCGS grading or not… I think drakesterling.com is still providing such service..

    Just for reference.
    In Sydney, Drake would not meet with me to drop of coins, they are an online service only
    KJC no longer offer the service but suggested it was very optional these days because when someone else has to grade the coin they will have to crack it out of the slab anyway.
    NGC - only agent for them seems to be in Tasmania

    I'd suggest Imperial Bullion but they're in Brissy only. Maybe make it a family meet / holiday here in Brisvegas :cool:

    Another option is to wait until Sydney ANDA show - it's very likely Imperial will be there on-site and can book your coins for grading there. Good luck!

    Jaggards is not KJC…used to be affiliated…not now…surprisingly you got ‘very helpful’ guy @ counter…must’ve been your lucky day then.
