NGC crossovers - Lincoln cents?

Hi all, need some help here. Can anyone comment on how difficult it is to cross over Lincoln cents from NGC to PCGS? I've had some success with Jeffersons but never tried crossing a Lincoln yet. Obviously, I wouldn't try to cross a coin I didn't feel was correctly graded, but I'm talking about coins that you feel NGC has assigned a fair grade. Thanks!

  • No takers? Surely there are some out there who tried to cross NGC early date wheaties over to PCGS!

    Don't you know NGC coins NEVER cross over!!!image
    It is not exactly cheating, I prefer to consider it creative problem solving!!!

    Well PCGS is tough on red and do grade the most conservitve, be set to lose a point or so.
  • I've never had an early Lincoln business strike cross at the same grade. I've had a few 50's cross and a lot of modern proofs.

    Received these grades from a March submission:
    NGC-1919 MS64RB to PCGS MS64RB
    1924 MS64RD PCGS MS64RD
    1926 MS66RB PCGS MS66RB
    1929S MS64RD PCGS MS63RD
    1936DMS66RD PCGS MS65RD

    These were submitted in the NGC slabs with "Crossover at any grade."

    if the coin is all there for the grade in the ngc holder and also high end++++ killer monster lustre and eye appeal for the grade and date mintmark combo and liner next grade and full no brainer killer cherry red orange if graded full red in the ngc holder

    then........................................

    breaking out the coin and submitting raw will get you the grade and designation on the pcgs holder that ngc formerly had on the holder

    corssovers are a shot in the dark with multiple submissions done at certain times with intimate arbitrage insider knowledge of the current days submission standard and specific grading parameters of that day and by whom and then luck and re submissions

    and image it would help if the coin is all there and then some for grade and designation in the ngc holder
