This is an old company. They were once called FCS, out of N.Y. These guys actually started before most and many of their grades were right on. I saw some at a coin show and some Federal at a flea markets. They were really way ahead of those services that lasted. Cannot tell you why they died. Kick myself for not buying a couple. Do not know about their graders.

Thanks for the info. I didn't know about this company before.
Now that you mentioned FCS, I'll add those pictures here.
The just sold on Ebay but I was not the winner. I had a high bid in but someone wanted it more.
FCS Slab/cert dated 12/10/1986

I don't really know any of the grades at any of the TPG comanies, so I don't know any of the intials. Only if they write articles for Coin World.
