    It shows no photo on the website, which I can understand. Would you want to take a photo of a million or so silver eagles? Also, granted this is a 2013, a lot of the older slabbed coins do not have photos.

    NGC now photographs every coin they grade. Sometimes it can take quite a while for the photo to be uploaded to the site. Patience, grasshopper.

    Too many are graded, taking a pic of each wood take too long XD but I think they'd look the same considering their all ms69

    If you had a million identical houses to sell would you take a photo of every one? And like rickmp said, it could just not be up yet. At the same time though don't they grade silver eagles in bulk? Look at a few, determine a grade, then that's the grade they all get?

    true, true-valid point. As a business man myself if I offer you a 'product' then I will give you the full meal deal is what I am saying--not the engine now and in a few months I'll show you the transmission, when I get around to get the picture to upload-and yes you are right, they, the 2013 w eagles, early release, may get the same grade--
    I love the NGC app, scan the bar code-info, price etc--or just punch in the numbers-
    It just makes me feel better about a purchase when I use the NGC, app and get the info I need to make an informed purchase...Still like them 2013 eagles--thanks for your view--and input=later

    Funny thing is I've never been able to get that app to scan a bar code

    Remove and re-install the app.

Yep mud on my face for the app-but I walked out with a 1909 VDB MS 63 red, cert# 2143513-001 for a whopping 40 bucks!!! No shipping, coin in hand and a happy coin hunter!! No sales tax either!!! Leaving tomorrow for Kansas City, MO.
