Can I specify a grade on a crossover?

For example if I send in a NGC MS62 but would like it in a AU58 PCGS holder can I crossover and specify AU58 as lowest and highest image

    It is my understanding that you can request a cross at a minimum grade or higher, but you cannot dictate either an upgrade or a specific grade if that grade is not the grade on the current insert.

  • Yes, you can request to cross at a minimum of 58.

    If it comes back higher than 58..

    just crack it out and mash it slightly. Then resubmit.

    I'll let the rub on the coin speak for itself... dented, bent, and marred I'd have to specify Genuine Only as a lowest grade! imageimage

    You can not request a specific grade, only a minimum grade.
    When in doubt, don't.

    You can make the grade a lot easier than specifying it. It will require a "crack out" and some nose grease.

    Just wondering why.... by any chance are you looking to get a gold CAC sticker if you get the MS62 into an AU58 holder?

    Right - then he'll post a 'Guess the Grade' thread with it, and when we all guess MS62 (or maybe higher), he'll say 'Nope, AU58!' image
