<p>[QUOTE=&quot;NorthKorea, post: 2229614, member: 29643&quot;]For me (and I know I&#039;m usually in the minority), this post muddied the waters even more.</p><p><br /></p><p>Here&#039;s what I understand:</p><p><br /></p><p>1) You initially started the thread to validate something you already knew -- it&#039;s possible to resubmit a QC coin and have it come back without qualifiers.</p><p><br /></p><p>2) You followed up by asking for advice on how to get the coin to be submitted successfully (assumed to mean getting a non-qualified grade).</p><p><br /></p><p>It&#039;s the second point that I (and apparently others on the board) have a contention with. Without knowing how the coin in question looks, it&#039;s impossible to determine whether you should bother to have it resubmitted.</p><p><br /></p><p>Obviously, if you&#039;re just asking the most likely way to get the coin to grade unqualified, the solution is to crack it out and submit it to NGC (assuming it was QCed by PCGS). I would think PCGS has some sort of library of qualified coins it receives, if only for training graders on what to look for. If they see the same coin pop up in their database, they&#039;ll likely flag it as QC without really reviewing it.</p><p><br /></p><p>The reason people are asking to see the coin is simple: You&#039;re likely wasting your time resubmitting the coin anyway. At least, if the consensus stands that the color is natural, you&#039;ll have a higher probability of attaining a non-QC grade. If the consensus is that the coin is artificially toned, you&#039;ll likely get a QC grade again.</p><p><br /></p><p>Now, all of that said, when you cited the bump in price by losing the QC grade, is the higher price for a vibrantly toned coin in MS63? If the color is irrelevant, why not have the coin dipped or w/e to remove the color outright?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
