I cracked out a couple of NGC coins to send to PCGS but wont know the results
for a couple of months.It will be interesting
It\'s not about who you know it\'s about what you know

My understanding is that less than 1 in 200 NGC coins upgrade at swap over. I think that is for coins sent in the NGC slab and not cracked out.

I would HOPE that if a coin was sent to PCGS in a slab that was done by an alternative grader that the coin would be removed from the slab and no information regarding its previous grade given to the PCGS graders.

Would this be too much to expect?

(Please excuse me if I have missed some important step in the grading process).

oh my florin

I believe the holders are placed in special holders which cover up the original grade and grading company (you may be able to tell based on the plastic style?) so the previous grade doesn't impact on the final determination. This is the case at PCGS and NGC as far as I know however I assume ANACS would also use the same process.

Finally getting Eric to send my 1934 Florin off to PCGS to crossover. NGC MS65.

Thanks Fr45h3R for taking these sexy photos at Petersham Coin Show today. :good:


wwwww


oh my florin

I agree it should cross and it looks like it should eventually develop a lovely pheripheral tone.

I hope so too! But those who looked at it in the flesh thinks MS64. And grudgingly said probably MS65 after I asked them 3 times! :P This is getting sent with a minimum grade of MS64.
