<p>[QUOTE=&quot;kanga, post: 289517, member: 9270&quot;]I sent an e-mail to PCGS asking the question &quot;What happens if a coin changes from it&#039;s original designation.&quot;</p><p>Actually I was mostly interested to determine if there was an &quot;expected life&quot; for a slab.</p><p>Frankly I expected a vague answer.</p><p>Their response was professional and about as definitive as could be expected.</p><p>Here it is:</p><p>&quot;<i>We guarantee the coin as long as the coin remains in a PCGS holder.&nbsp; If for whatever reason the coin turns color or does not appear to be Red-Brown then you may send the coin back to PCGS for a guarantee resubmission.&nbsp; We will review the coin and come to a resolution of either buying the coin back from you or changing the designation and giving to a check in the difference from one value to another.&nbsp; Again all of this is decided if and when the coin comes to PCGS because of change in an un-tampered PCGS holder.</i>&quot;</p><p>I don&#039;t believe I could have received a more positive statement of policy, and at the same time be satisfactory within the bounds reasonableness.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
