Does the 'pedigree' go with the coin?

etexmike

For example:

I have a coin that has the 'Benson' pedigree graded by PCGS.
If I send the coin in to NGC still holdered, and they grade it higher, do they acknowledge the pedigree?

If the coin is NGC will PCGS do the same?

Yes, the two services will recognize the other's label for provenance purposes.

That was the answer I was hoping for.
Thanks a bunch.

However, it there is a pedigree that is meaningless, you can have it removed..ie. the "Hillary Clinton Collection"

I wouldn't have one of those pedigrees in my collection to start with.
Talk about meaningless!

Not in every case. Just the major pedigrees.

The PCGS set registry pedigrees will not be recognizeed @ NGC.

My example was the coin I was referring.

I have a 1799 PCGS 'Benson' dollar in AU50.

The general agreement is that the coin is undergraded. To all but the PCGS graders.
I thought I might see what the folks at NGC think if the pedigree stayed with the coin.

I'm usually not concerned with pedigrees, but this is a nice coin.

I understand. I was just clarifying the statement that tradedollarnut made in case other board members with other pedigrees did not know

Gotcha Mr. Kiefer.

I'm not the sharpest knife in the drawer.
I need a little help from time to time.
