What are my options with a downgrade at NGC?

Will they slab it in a lower grade and refund me the difference?
Will they buy it back?..and for what price?

I would ask this at the NGC forum.

Trying to get an answer to that myself, here's my thread on it... 1857 Flying Eagle Appearance Review

Should know more this week...

My impression is that it depends on why you think a downgrade is needed. if it's because of damage/spots like mine, they'll pretty much insist NCS work their magic and then letting NGC regrade before discussing any details of reimbursement.


By the way, I too tried to search posts over at NGC forum first, but never found anything on point to this issue... good luck.

I bought a 1905 indian cent in a MS-64RB holder off of ebay. I sent it to NGC and they sent me a brand-new 1905 indian cent in a MS-65Brown holder. The 64RB was a hideous monster that was hard to look at. I got a good deal on it. It took NGC about three months to find me a replacement coin.

I was happy.

I sent a better date walker back to them that was in a 64 holder, that I thought was over graded. They 'conserved' it, using something to remove some of the light haze on the coin, and reholdered it. It now looks almost good enough to be a 63
