    I saw where NGC will issue the 2007 coins as "Early Release(s) nest year instead of their "fine First Strikes". But you have to order real quick.

    The First slabbed coin I bought was a buffalo "first Strike" and i now see this is obsolete :mad:. I am curious if I send in my "First Strike buffalo" along with a few buck, will they crack it open for me and put it in a "Early release" or am i doomed to live with yesterday Fad

    Maybe i could send it to ICG or was it NCIS and get them to put a "First day issue" :mouth:

    Or perhaps yours will become a scarce collectible, as a 'pre-conversion' type?
    :D

    Exactly why NGC will never see any of my money. NGC has become nothing more than another "snake oil" salesman out to do whatever it takes to get people to hand over their hard earned money. I would put NGC on the same tier as the TV coin shows and their fancy methods of deception.

    I think they put themselves there. In criminal law a facilitator/accomplice can often be punishable as a principal.

    Then you better add PCGS to the list also - they were the first with "first strikes".

    Time will tell. Right now I think NGC owns the "snake oil" title. They put their tail between their legs, ran a little ways and then immediately started another scam.:(

    Its the other way around--PCGS copy righted the title and NGC sued them saying that they can't copyright words and now both companies are being sued by some collectors.
