NGC UPgraded my PCI "Cross-At-Any-Grade" and Gave it a STAR!

It's worthy too. I'm pleased that NGC (and, I'm positive PCGS does too!) look past the plastic and at the coin.

I hope that coin looks better than your picture shows...

Thank goodness, it does! (I had the camera on "portrait" setting and after shooting a few coins and realizing it, was too lazy to alter the settings.)

Pat, that's a nice clad.

Green PCI huh? What's the reverse look like?

More bands of "Morgan-like" color- RED; GREEN, and a golden yellow. Lots of luster too.
I'll try and get a shot off tomorrow with the proper camera setting!.

Edited to add: I wish TAD of Supercoin was still around as I bought this one and one other from him. If I remember correctly, he tried to get PCGS to holder these without success.
I bought them raw and had PCI take a shot.

We both believed the color was good, just a bit scary for the Services.

The devices have a peacoock green and gold appeal to them.

Now crack it and send to PCGS since your sure it would come out the same! Is PCI becoming more conservative than NGC?

Truly beautiful. Somtimes there are gems in those PCI slabs!

Pat, when I first saw the thread I thought, "You mean they took a P01 and brought it up to a Fair 2?"

Good eye, since you too had to look past the plastic is picking it.

Somebody here on the forums has a link under his name about PCI holders. It says something to the effect that the old PCI holders with 10 digits would cross 1 to 2 points higher with NGC or PCGS.
