I was at this show today, first time in about 2 or 3 years. Verry large turnout today, things must be looking up. Looked like a lot of buying going on, verry nice show.

I don't quite understand, what are you asking. You get what you pay for. If you don't ask for mint error and pay for it, they don't put it on, simple as that. show the reverse so we can see the rotated reverse.

Hope you do great on the flying eagle; I have one in the same grade from ANACS I bought from Rick Snow many years ago. I often wonder what they might bring now, soon I'll know.

Good luck, hope it go's high.

If real it is an overdate, and would get a Details grade. But I don't think it's real, looks off.

What do you think about this Coin VKurtB.... what grade you think it is.. 

I don't think this is real, Fake? Where did you get this? Just doesn't look right. Reverse mint mark and front do not match like coins on coinfacts.

Being this is your first submission to NGC, I would like to relay to you some of my experiences over the last roughly ten years of making submissions. My basic advice to you is once your coins (or tokens) leave your hands, and get on their way, forget about the turnaround times. Know it is going to be quite a while before you get them back. One year I had a submission that I sent in around mid April. Due to several bulk submissions received by NGC at the time, as well as some notable high end submissions, and a shipwreck submission I believe, my small submission got put on the backburner. I got them back that year at the end of November.

Despite the stated turnaround times, NGC has no control over the quantity of submissions they receive at any given time. I do know they do get to them in the order they are received. One year my submission sat in their queue in their vault for over two months before even being accepted into the facility because there was a rash of submissions coming at them all at once.

I learned to just accept that when I submit, my personal window is anywhere from 3 to 6 months. Yes, months. That way, you won't be disappointed, nor will you be trying to hold NGC to strict turnaround times when things happen on their end that is out of their control. When I submit in February or March, I just think of Christmas in July and it makes me happy.

 I also usually submit at the CSNS show, which NGC accepts submissions at. The tables are always full of people submitting. And NGC has a schedule of coin shows that they will be at accepting submissions. Be aware of this as well when you are sending in your submission as there could be hundreds of submissions hitting their vault from a coin show. (CSNS, World's Fair of Money, Summer FUN, etc.)

I disagree with you on the turnaround times, they can be adjusted to reflect volumes, and should be at least once a week. It should not say 20 days and then take 4 months.Thats just not a good business model.

Glad to hear I'm not the only one with an order that's way behind. I was beginning to think they misplaced my tokens or something and were just stalling while they figured out what happened. Sorry to hear your waiting so long too, but it eases my anxiety a little knowing someone else is having the same issue with their order. When I shipped my submissions, the turnaround time was listed as 26 days, but soon after my order arrived, it was down to 20 so I figured I would have my stuff back a little faster. I never expected to be waiting twice as long as the estimated turnaround time. Hopefully they get things moving and we get our stuff soon! Another part about this that sucks is that they won't give me the info on what my tokens all graded as. The one person I emailed before said they arent allowed to give that info and it'll be updated online after the order is shipped to me. It jist sucks waiting and then not knowing. All I can see is the list of tokens I submitted, but the grade ingot is all blank. Being my first submission, I really want to know what my stuff graded as and the waiting is killing me. I really hope they get our stuff ahipped very soon!

I collect tokens to, civil war tokens. This is about the 10th time I sent a submission in and they are normally pretty good about turnaround times, within a few days of estimate. But this time the estimated times are way off. Good luck, hope we both get them soon.

Same problem here, when my submission was delivered to NGC 5/16/23 turnaround time was 26 days. When it was marked received on 5/23/23 turnaround time was 20 days, stayed there for weeks. Then want to 24 days and after a few days want back down to 23 days. I'm a little confused myself. Mine is 34 days or 39 days depending on the date that they use.

Just wanted to know how others are doing with submissions. I'm at 34 days and counting on economy. In NGC's building 5/16/23, Received 5/23/23. I am using their receiving date, use to be that the date in the building was used in turnaround times, so it might be 39 days. I was told yesterday they are just a little behind, I asked why turnaround times are at 23 days, no real answer. How are the rest of You's doing?

I must live under a dark cloud; my economy token submission is at about 30 days. I also have a standard there that was sent in together that was graded about a week and a half ago. I was told they are running behind schedule. so, i can't see my grades till the economy is done, as I asked for them to ship together. Guess I'll just have to wait a little longer.

.

On the submission forms there is an add on fee for tokens of 5.00. Is this only if you do not know the catalog number? Do you have to pay this if you record the catalog number on the submission form?

Thank you, mike

Thank you, This has been taken care of. You's guys are the best.

Line # 1 of my submission 6523864 is listed wrong, should be listed as OH-975I-1a Miller & Co. This submission is scheduled for grading.

Can someone please fix this before shipping. Thank you

3888362001-VF details. Is there more than one details holder in the census?

Why no details census for civil war tokens, at one time there was one? I have a Fred Behr details token from Detroit, and would like to know how many total NGC has graded.

Thank you.

The 1857 flying Eagle cent was clashed with the 25 cent piece, is there clash mark in the fields. this may be the die failing after the clash.

NGC and NCS Announce Revised Services and Fees for 2023

I misread this Announcement and thought it was for grading fee's

Thank you for your reply. 

Are there new grading prices for 2023, if so when will they be posted?

Thank you.

I would like to see other pictures if you can. The details of your coin look to be high AU to UNC. As to you buying an 1856 for 10,000 (that's a whole lot of coin and money) if you do not know coins very well. If you chose to buy something like that, you should contact Rick Snow at Eagle Eye for advice. My vf-35 is a Snow-7 clashed with a twenty-dollar gold piece, much rarer coin. Good luck with your 1857 S-8, I hope it Straight grades for you.

You seem interested in S-8's, I have a nice little story for you. Back in the mid 80's I was in my mid 20"s and collected flying eagles and indian head cents.

This is before the internet and there were very few dealers in my town. The one dealer took me under his wing and taught me about coin collecting and what to look for as to cleaning and damaged coins. I told this dealer that I wanted a MS flying eagle cent. A few weeks later he called me and told me he had something to show me. 1857 MS flying eagle, I bought it for 200.00 and that was a lot of money for me at the time. A few years latter my dealer friend had died, and Rick Snow wrote his first book. As I was looking through the book, I saw the part about the clashed cents. I had thought that my 1857 had a strike thru on the reverse, but it was the S-8 clashed die. I sent it in to ANACS and had it graded, it came back as MS-62 in one of the little white holders. Since then I bought a vf-35 S-7 in a little white holder for a little bit more than the S-8, If you know what I mean.

That coin looks cleaned,but it is a Snow#8 rev.

just wanted to wish you all the best and hope you all and your families are safe the next few days.

good luck and be safe, see you when you get back.

You played the game and you lost, move on, move acrossed the street if that makes you happy. Ngc is a fine company and I for one am more than happy with them. Quick turn around times and answers when you ask them, see if you get that acrossed the street!
