<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Speedy, post: 224949, member: 705&quot;]Well guys!</p><p>Today I got my first &quot;bad&quot; lot back from NGC.</p><p>I sent in 5 coins---2 were mine and the others were from a friend...only 2 can back slabbed. </p><p>I sent in a:</p><p>1942/1 Dime</p><p>1926-S Nickel</p><p>3 2 cent pieces.</p><p><br /></p><p>Now I knew that the 42/1 dime had been cleaned but me and some others thought that it was &quot;market acceptable&quot; and so I sent it in...thinking that it would grade F/VF....Bodybagged...now that didn&#039;t make me mad....but when I pulled out the 26-S nickel that is when I got mad...</p><p>See the photos below--the coin is plainly a VF20+....they sent it back as VG10! In other words....they didn&#039;t take into thinking that this coin has a weak strike....so I called them and they said to send it back along with $30 and they would take a looksee :desk: :headbang: </p><p><br /></p><p>My buddy had 2 coins BB&#039;ed for cleaning also---his other one came back MS62....I sure didn&#039;t think that his would comeback cleaned....he thought one of them might though....</p><p><br /></p><p>Maybe NGC is getting tighter....I&#039;m pretty sure that &quot;good ol&quot; PCGS would have slabbed all of these in a heat beat.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;ve been meaning to join the NGC collectors club and if I do I&#039;m thinking I&#039;ll send back in the Nickel.....in VF the coin is worth around $250-$300 and I don&#039;t have anywhere near that in it so I think it would be worth it to send it in again.</p><p><br /></p><p>On the other hand---I understand that some people collect Bodybags.....seems nuts to me but maybe I have something really nice here!!! <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />&nbsp; <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><br /></p><p>Have a great day!</p><p><br /></p><p>Speedy[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
