    So I have this coin (https://www.ngccoin.com/certlookup/6558615-006/NGCAncients/) but the reverse image photo is not from this coin. The correct reverse is this: upload_2023-6-26_13-44-15.png
    Anyway, I click "Wrong Coin/Grade?" and it sends me to the Registry FAQ. I check the FAQ, and it tells me to go back to the coin and click "Wrong Coin/Grade?".
    What gives with this place? Anyone had a similar experience?
    On the coin page:

    Those ones are pretty crazy.
    Where'd those additional images come from? Never seen a NGC cert page with (what look like) additional stock US Mint images.

    I have this one, an 1891 CC Morgan. Their reverse pic is of an "S" minted coin. I left a message with them to have it corrected, even gave them the other coin an 1895 S, with my reverse on it, never heard a thing or got it corrected.

    They'll fix them for free, call customer service and ask for a pre-paid label.

    Or keep them for amusement...

    The slab is correct. It's the image online that is wrong.

    They may not be able to find the right image, and they don't like to make changes without the coin in-hand.

    That's fair. But my main gripe is that there's no way for me to report it, since the site offers conflicting information. And I could call customer service, wait on hold, explain the problem, probably twice, but who wants to do that?
