<p>[QUOTE=&quot;iPen, post: 8382599, member: 69760&quot;]<font size="4">For anyone interested or curious, it looks like it doesn&#039;t matter how many times you submit coins for pedigree designation, so long as it meets some other basic criteria.</font></p><blockquote><p><font size="3"><br /></font></p><p><font size="3">A submitter to NGC may request that NGC pedigree a coin to his or her own collection on the NGC certification label. The most common pedigrees are the submitter’s surname followed by the word “Collection.” <b>No additional documentation is required when a submitter is requesting that his or her own name be added to the NGC certification label</b>; however, if a submitter’s surname is the same as a famous person’s surname, NGC may reject the pedigree or require that the submitter’s given name and surname be used. A collector may also select a name of personal significance other than a surname. For example, children’s names or a geographic place name may be used. In such cases, NGC may require additional information before the pedigree will be granted.</font></p><p><font size="3"><br /></font></p><p><font size="3">Some restrictions apply to pedigrees assigned by NGC. Pedigrees on NGC labels do not begin with the word “The.” A trademarked name or tagline cannot be used as a pedigree without permission from the trademark owner. Except by special arrangement, Company names are not used in pedigrees, including references to specific auction sales that are less than 100 years old.</font></p><p><font size="3"><br /></font></p><p><font size="3">Recognition and attribution of pedigrees is at NGC’s sole discretion. NGC will not recognize a pedigree that it believes could be confused with another pedigree.</font></p><p><a href="http://ngccoin.com/coin-grading/pedigrees/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://ngccoin.com/coin-grading/pedigrees/" rel="nofollow"><font size="2">ngccoin.com/coin-grading/pedigrees/</font></a></p><p><br /></p></blockquote><p>It also says this in the first Q&amp;A at the bottom of the link, which is nice: &quot;There is no additional fee to attribute a coin to a collection, including your own.&quot; I read on the NGC forum that filling out your pedigree name may cause a $5 charge, but I&#039;m not sure if that&#039;s due to an error, requesting for some other label service instead of a pedigree (and paying for it for no reason), or maybe the policy changed and NGC didn&#039;t update the linked page above.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
