Should PCGS encapsulate this item??

Do you think PCGS should encapsulate this medal?? It has always puzzled me why they won't grade/holder more Mint Struck medals which are important Numismatically. This is one of them.

    Will NGC encapsulate that medal?

    Perhaps there is a difference in opinion on "important Numismatically"? image

    No.

    I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment

    ATS will grade this because it is a H&K listed SCD (HK-876), however, PCGS does not currently grade by H&K listing.

    There have been a few requests for PCGS to grade H&K listed SCDs over the years, but I'm not sure the market is attractive / large enough yet.

    The requests to encapsulate H&K listed SCDs is similar to other things ATS encapsulates but PCGS does not: Conders, HTTs, Heraldic Art medals, etc.

    I believe that PCGS does/will grade and encapsulate this piece. This is a very new service. Not sure if they will attribute this via Julian or HK numbers.

    Send in a check to PCGS, along with that piece. Just say "I WANT THIS SLABBED". on a post it with a smiley face.
    Don't forget to sign the check. image
