    I think I wouldn't be boasting about lying to a person to cheat them out of a coin, even if it were only worth a couple of dollars.

    Just Bob got a reaction from Hoghead515 in NCS Conservation   
    I have not seen the video in question, but if the submitter implied that NCS caused the coins to be declared "cleaned," I imagine he/she is mistaken. Bobby likely had it correct: NCS saw that the coins had been previously cleaned, and returned them to them submitter marked as such. If you have doubts or questions, why not post in the "Ask NGC" forum, or send them an email? I am sure they will answer any concerns that you might have.

    Just Bob got a reaction from Turko in 1972 no fg Kennedy half dolar question   
    I think I would grade that one Fine. I honestly don't know how much an example in this grade would sell for, so you might want to do some searching on Ebay for coins in similar condition that have sold in the past. It may pay to have it authenticated, if you think it will sell for around a hundred dollars or more.

    I guess I am just dense, but I don't understand the point of this paragraph at all. In fact, this whole thread has me confused. I have no idea what you are trying to say.

    In addition to all of the other comments, I will add that it is impossible to determine an accurate grade of your coin by just a picture of the obverse.

    It would be helpful to me if you would cite specific examples. What coins did you submit to NGC, only to have them returned as ineligible? What National Park and Smithsonian coins are you talking about? Which pieces from National, International, and Private mints? What "major grading and pricing guides" are you referring to?

    I did not try to find the ebay listing to see if it had better obverse pictures, but VAM-6 does appear to be the right choice.

    I have to agree with the others - the coin is not genuine.

    You can't go wrong with any book by David Lange (DWLange) or Roger Burdette (RWB).
    Q. David Bowers has written a few good ones, too.  Also, Kevin Flynn's series of reference books are helpful, if you like to hunt varieties.
