[QUOTE="geekpryde, post: 1955630, member: 36248"]Well after years of waiting, I finally am sending this coin back to NGC to get the designation added to the holder. I was worried it would not re-holder in grade, but NGC has assured me that it will not downgrade or at least that their guarantee will hold. I talked with them on the phone today, but who knows? Anyhow, I had listed this on eBay a few days ago at $900 and had some very serious offers, but ultimately there is just too much risk for a buyer without the variety on the holder. Believe it or not, this coin now goes for $1200-$2000 on Heritage. I pulled the auction and sent notes to the interested parties saying I would reholder myself to minimize the risk to buyer AND seller. So, to get this one coin re-holdered cost me $64 so far, not counting me shipping this Registered Mail to NGC tomorrow. $15 for Variety Plus (includes re-holder) $15 for NGC imaging (I'll get to see how good / bad this service is) $8.00 handling (I think this is a BS charge, but whatever) $26.00 for USPS shipping back to me _____ $64.00 + $26 RM = $90.00 for this one coin. Still worth it, since in theory this will be a $1500+ coin. I will keep you all posted, especially about the Photos and if it keeps the Cameo and 68 grade, I was told via phone call with NGC today. -Matt[/QUOTE]
