Описание: Interview with Paul DeFelice of ANACS at the ANA National Money Show 2025 – The Role of Coin Shows in Grading & Collecting

At the ANA National Money Show 2025 in Atlanta, I sat down with Paul DeFelice, Vice President of ANACS, to discuss the importance of coin shows, third-party grading, and what makes ANACS unique in the industry.

ANACS has been a trusted name in numismatic authentication and grading for over 50 years, and unlike other grading services, ANACS representatives attend over 300 coin shows annually. Paul explains why coin shows remain vital for collectors, the differences between ANACS, PCGS, and NGC, and how ANACS is helping collectors with affordable, accessible grading services.
