[QUOTE="geekpryde, post: 25720690, member: 36248"]What I call what you are asking about is a "Translation Table" or a "Lookup Table". I do not know of a publicly available Translation table between PCGS numbers (Industry Numbers), and the annoying distinct NGC numbers, but this table [U]MUST exist[/U] because some auction companies list BOTH for each coin, and some always list the PCGS number even for NGC slabbed coins. So, either there is one available that exists for industry insiders, or all the big players have their own proprietary translation database. I would also like access to such a table, as translating these on the fly would be handy. Example from GreatCollections, my NGC graded Washington with it's PCGS number: [ATTACH=full]1643735[/ATTACH] If you use this industry ID say on Coinfacts, it comes right up: [ATTACH=full]1643736[/ATTACH] Not sure what the OP needs/ wants these for, but for me, using these IDs to find coins to buy, or while researching, greatly speeds up things as you are not having to type in "1966 25c blah blah blah" Especially for major / minor varieties, like DDO and other more niche versions of coins, the Industry ID is very handy, and so I like to use it. Hence, being able to quickly translate between NCC and PCGC would be awesome for us few people that use these to help automate coin finding.[/QUOTE]
