<p>[QUOTE=&quot;robinjojo, post: 7322555, member: 110226&quot;]I went to the NGC website to check on their policies on authenticity.&nbsp; You are correct.&nbsp; NGC does not guarantee the authenticity of ancient coins, primarily due to their age (age discrimination!), the existence of ancient contemporary fakes, a general lack of documentation compared to modern coins, and the wide array of conditions for ancient coins compared to modern coins.&nbsp; So, an ancient coin is put into a NGC slab and deemed authentic based on their opinion, but with no money-back guarantee if the coin turns out to be bogus.</p><p><br /></p><p>They do have a different guarantee policy, which is fairly lengthy, for modern coins.&nbsp; Basically, under certain conditions, a coin can be returned to NGC due to non-authenticity. There are documentation requirements.&nbsp; If the slabbed coin is in fact fake, there are options, which I won&#039;t outline here.</p><p><br /></p><p>Note:&nbsp; This link covers the guarantees for authenticity and grade for non-ancient coins.</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://www.ngccoin.com/coin-grading/ngc-guarantee/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.ngccoin.com/coin-grading/ngc-guarantee/" rel="nofollow">https://www.ngccoin.com/coin-grading/ngc-guarantee/</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
