I like the new NGC only registry.

There is so much fun in collecting coins and I am find that NGC has been excellent and pointing out problem coins but still accepting that a light clean from 100 years ago does not mean the coin is not worth collecting.

It is for this reason that while one day I will finish the Liberty Seated Series, NGC will be the main grader of choice for my quarter collection.

I am not going to leave my children coins that they do not understand. NGC holder protect the coins make them marketable.

Not every collection is about the best coin or the highest grade. Some coin with wear and minor issues that are still eye appealing are more interesting to look at. They have a story to tell, after all a boy Honest Abe may very well have spent these coins.
