NGC Copper Guarantee

    I was just going to post on this. image

    It's a good start, but I wonder how people will know when their coins are certified. It seems like a clever way for NGC to get a bunch of resubmissions on copper coins.

    Also, I don't know if it is only a grade guarantee or also a color guarantee.
  • Greg,

    That's probably true, but I also think it gives alot of people who are fed up with the way PCGS has been grading copper a new alternative.

    Intersting Andy, thanks for the heads up. Smart move on their part to put them on a level playing field with PCGS as far as consumer confidence goes. Just hope they don't become as paranoid as PCGS as a result. In the past NGC was a nice alternative for coppers which everyone except PCGS thought were original.
  • Very slick way to boost certifications by NGC! Excellent marketing strategy!
    If you give up your rights, in order to maintain your freedom. You will most likely end up losing both!

    I'm surprised it's just a 10 year warranty from grading. Is PCGS's lifetime in the holder?
