Downgraded? 1879-cc ms64

I'm in the midlle of a discussion here and need some expert info. I have a real nice 1879-cc MS64, in an old pcgs holder. To me this coin should have the PL designation. If I send it in and go for it, can it be downgraded?

    Send it in for regrade in the holder and worst case it comes back in a new holder at the old grade.

    Hello!

    Leave it in the holder, and request a "Variety Designation Review". In doing so, the old grade is guaranteed.

    Cost is just ten bucks.

    If they agree, they put it in a new holder graded 64PL. If they don't agree, they return it to you as is in the old holder.

    Good luck!!!

    When in doubt, don't.

    Is there any chance the coin might upgrade? If so I would still go the regrade route. If the coin is pl they should designate as such on the regrade and it might upgrade with no downside. Of course it cost $30 but it is a $5000 coin. Either way good luck!image
  • Why not call Carol or BJ, explain the situation to them and see what they have to say - if you go this route PLEASE LET US KNOW!

    And Good Luck!

    PCGS doesn't have this service anymore. NGC does, but not PCGS.

    You need to send the coin in under their "Regrade" service. PCGS will guarantee the current grade or pay you the difference. Your coin will come back in a new slab.
