Need forum folk advise

I have the only known Proof Silver Minn. error tree.

It is in an NGC holder as a UCM 70

It has been verified by Potter etc.

Should I crack it out and send to PCGS since NGC does not attribute the extra trees?

Should I leave it as is and try to find someone willing to take it on consignment?

What is a reasonable consignment fee?

Coinworld has a picture and article on it this past week

thank you dennis hougard

    You shouldn't crack it out of a PF 70 holder, IMHO.

    Just wait until they attribute it as you wish and you will already have the ultimate grade.

    I firmly believe in numismatics as the world's greatest hobby, but recognize that this is a luxury and without collectors, we can all spend/melt our collections/inventories.

    Agreed. Cracking a 70 is suicide.

    Leave it in the holder and wait until NGC starts attributing them.

    I agree, don't crack out a Proof-70. At least until they go to the 100-point grading system.
