[QUOTE="Insider, post: 2666591, member: 24314"]IMO, NCS was/is a really good service; however, I have not used their services in quite a few years (that's why the "is"?). As you wrote, they sent a note that your coin could be conserved. Normally, they would not do this unless it was an "easy $25" and at least an upgrade. IMO, they should just call you while they have the coin. If you do some research, there is one TPGS that would have called you and with your approval they would have "fixed" the "problem" of negative eye appeal on your coin for free. Proofs especially are prone to spots and haze. These lower the coin's eye appeal/grade. Many knowledgeable dealers and collectors conserve their coins before submitting them; but it's best not to touch them if you are not proficient. To the best of my knowledge, these coins are not expensive. It may be best to save the fee this time unless a grade jump will bring a lot more money.[/QUOTE]
