If you pay for either Mint Error or VarietyPlus at NGC and the coin doesn't get attributed, then the coin will come in a bag, even if the coin...
Yeah, I called them a couple days ago and the rep told me that it only says INELIGIBLE TYPE on their end. There's no further information on their...
Oh and I didn't pay anywhere near those figures though! I think they were well within sub-$100 each purchased raw. I saved so much compared to...
Well, what I thought they should grade as vs. what NGC graded them as resulted in a value difference of at least several hundred dollars each for...

I might just do that for this medal, along with my next submission. I'd have to wait until the end of April for the show in IL though...
I just don't see how it can cause all of that damage in a flip. Some of the damage is in the fields which would be less likely to be in contact...
Yes, it was in an over-sized flip, and packed with tons of bubble wrap. It's as if someone placed the medal flat on a table and pushed it aside...
OK, I received the medal back today and I see that the big "gouge" was simply a piece of plastic (phew!). However, marks that weren't on the medal...
I received my January submission from NGC today, and one of the coins is a 1914 Buffalo nickel with a noticeable 15 degree die rotation (and a...
