International Coin Certification Service (ICCS) is a third-party coin grading service. It determines the condition and authenticity of each coin it grades to provide consumers with an independent rating on which to judge the coin. They do not provide coin valuations. ICCS was founded in 1986, and is located in Toronto, Ontario. The company will grade coins from most countries but is particularly known for grading coins of the Canadian dollar. ICCS is respected for offering conservative and consistent grades. They currently package coins they have certified in a PET film envelope which is sealed in an outer flip style envelope. The other side of the flip is sealed with the ICCS grading certificate. The certificate shows the assigned grade, a certification number and any comments, (cleaned, coin variety, etc.), that apply to the coin. The company recognizes major varieties and many minor ones.

Famous quotes containing the words coin and/or service:
“Washington society has always demanded less and given more than any society in this country—demanded less of applause, deference, etiquette, and has accepted as current coin quick wit, appreciative tact, and a talent for talking.”
—M. E. W. Sherwood (1826–1903)
“The service a man renders his friend is trivial and selfish, compared with the service he knows his friend stood in readiness to yield him, alike before he had begun to serve his friend, and now also. Compared with that good-will I bear my friend, the benefit it is in my power to render him seems small.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
