NCS Genuine or PCGS Genuine?

I bought a raw '76-CC Trade Dollar several years ago that I knew was polished lightly and was certain of authenticity. I bought it primarily 'cause it is the scarce mintmark variety, and it currently is in a Classic ANACs holder, UNC DETAILS, Polished. Without considering the actual appearance, which service would you rather see reholder this?

you can include it in registry in that genuine holder

i'm too biased to give you a preference as i luv my pcgs

Absolutely no way I would pay the excessive fee for PCGS, sorry, but as much as I like them my money will never go to them for that. NCS seems to have pretty good acceptance for 1/3 the price.

above point taken but for pcgs registry this is sweet as pcgs doesn't not allow any other then pcgs holdered coins

an example lay in the 09vdb matte proof that has been rejected for ????

being this coin now is bringing moon money...us poor folks now have hope of completing this registry set

I would leave it as is. It has already been certified as genuine.

Good point. Anyone knowledgeable about ANACs from the time frame in which it was authenticated would know that Skip Fazzari had a part in the process, and that speaks volumes.

So, PCGS holders problem coins? Did I miss the update on this service?

PCGS will now designate authentic coins with problems as Genuine, for $100 per coin.

an amazing bit of common sense. i really cannot get over the
fact you would want to switch plastic in this case. it is all about
the coin and not the tpg.

Genuine? Do they assign a grade to it or just call it Genuine? Thank you, I've been wanting to know this before sending several ms coins that were dipped at some point
in their 200 year existance.

Thanks

why leave it in any holder? sounds like a coin you realy can't hurt much anyway, so crack it out & leave it out

Agree. Leave it in the ANACS slab and save your money for new coins.

unless you are going to sell it
and think it might bring more money in a different holder,
or question the validity of the previous evaluation
I would leave it alone and save the reholdering fees
