HELLO ALL I AM JIM AND MY QUESTION IS THE 2007 GEORGE WASHINHGTON DOLLAR HAS THESE FIRST DAY OF PRODUCTION COVER WITH TWO COINS JUST SOLD OUT FROM THE MINT ,THESE ARE CARDBOARD PACKAGING WITH A COIN FROM P & D , WITH A LOW MINTAGE OF ONLY 50 THOUSAND . OK SO NGC HAS ANOUNCED THAT THEY WILL EXCEPT THESE FIRST DAY COVERS UNOPENED ONLY FOR GRADING These Coins are the ONLY United States Mint Certified first strike coins actually struck the very First Day of Production for each GW Coin of the new $1 Presidential Coin Series. NGC SAYS YOU HAVE A CHOICE OF LEAVING THE COINS IN THE CARDBOARD THEY CAME IN WHICH THEY WILL PUT IN A FULL SIZE SLEEVE OR YOU CAN HAVE THE COINS PUT INTO REGULAR COIN SLABS AND GRADED AS SUCH BUT STILL AS FIRST DAY OF STRIKE.I HOPE I HAVE SAID WHAT I WANTED TO WITHOUT CONFUSING ANYONE .BASICALLY I AM GOING TO SEND IN THESE FIRST DAY COVERS TO NGC FOR GRADING AND SHOULD I LEAVE THE COINS IN THE COVER THEY CAME IN OR SHOULD I HAVE THE COINS REMOVED BY NGC AND HAVE THEM PUT INTO REGULAR COIN SLAB ..THE REAL QUESTION IS WHICH WAY WILL BE WORTH MORE MONEY THANK YOU FOR THE HELP AND I HOPE I HAVE PUT THIS IN THE RIGHT PLACE I AM ALSO VERY NEW TO COIN TALK
yes, welcome to the forum ... i thin your questions i going to be hard to answer .. isnt this the 1st time a TPG would grade these covers and leave them in the original packaging? I thibnk it is.. but if so, it will be hard to guess what the furture will do withthese sets... One thing to consider.. i think if you choose to leave the coins inthe original FDC packing, NGC will only enclose them inthe packing, i do not think they assign a grade - but i cant exactly remember...
