I sent in a Lincoln 1996-D mem. rev. Cent to N. G. C. that was a dull Zn. Color on both sides. I felt it was missing it's Cu. coating. I can't show a picture of it yet as I have not gotten it back yet but I did get results on the coins from the submission. It is a mint error cent struck on a Zn. planchet minus the Cu. coating MS 63 however they did not assign a value to it. One would think that it would have a pretty good value to it. How can it be valued reasonably if not by the outfit identifying and grading it
Pictures would help but look on ebay etc for similar sales and determine a possible value range related to your coin.
Yea.. That's what some people think. I've seen it sell from about $40.00 - $100.00 I think it's worth only what a collector of such an error is willing to pay for it. Start with the amount of what you paid to have it graded and attributed over at NGC.. In my honest opinion.. Not more than $100
Sending anything, whether to a TPG, buyer, or others, without having taken good photos is not a good idea, IMO. Having proof of the items with good photos should be paramount.
They are a coin grading company, not a company that determines the value of the piece. The coin market determines the value. It all depends on the coin, the way it looks, eye appeal, supply and demand.
