Can you put NGC coins in your Showcase set?

If you can, I can't figure out how to do it.

    The answer is basically "No."

    That being said, if you create a slot in the showcase with a PCGS cert#, you can supply whatever photo you want to use, and you can "hide" the TrueView of the coin that matches the cert#.

    Need a pcgs cert #. As cardinal says, you can use a cert. # for the same date and coin # from a donor slab, and supply pics of your NGC coins. Only the prongs will give it away. What are you working on? I have a number of showcases, some published and some I'm working on.

    What a splendid idea.

    Thanks

    It's the Ultimate Flying Eagle Set in my sig line. I have other Flying Eagles so I can use those cert numbers for the NGC coins for now. I tried crossing them once and didn't at the same grade and I don't want to down grade or send them in again anytime soon.

    Thanks guys, it's been a fun ride. Still a handful out there to get, and I need to add I want to add the small cent flying eagle patterns to it as well. I did go ahead and throw in the quarter that is from the clashed die creating 1857 S-8. I thought that would be a pretty cool addition
