    Huh?
    Wrong?
    No idea.
    As for the photo certs, I have one, for a major error, but I have never asked.
    Try their web site for FAQ'a.

    I could be wrong, but I don't believe that ANACS will automatically slab them at the same grade. A quick call to ANACS customer service should be able to clear it up though...MIke

    I doubt it. Standards change.

    If you are going to re-submit them...you should put the ANACS photo-grade sheets on the BST if you no longer have a use for them.

    IME, the old ANACS photo-grade sheets (with or without the accompanied coin that was graded) usually bring strong offers...

    i agree. if you are happy w/ the grades, keep them all together. if you feel they are worth more sell them as is, with the price you are wanting for them. i think that still having the original materials makes them much more interesting than a mere newly slabbed coin. simply my opinion....steve

    No they will not automatically slab them at the old grades. Since the coins are not sealed in a holder there is the chance that they have been mishandled in the meantime, and those certificates were not issued by the same company. That was three owners ago.

    If you do decide to get them re-slabbed I am always interested in the old certificates. I look for new varieties, rare varieties, and information on exactly when the different varieties were issued to nail down the changeover dates. I am especially interested in any certificates from 1975 and earlier.

    How about a photo cert from 02-18-81:
    USA 1920 Cent Struck on Argentine 10 Centavos Planchet?

    :whistle:

    And how much for the coin?
    (LOL)
