    In response to the previous comment I believe we all enjoy collecting whatever coin type we fancy. It does no one good to be so condeceding to make another feel stupid and ignorant because you know better. I myself have been duped by NGC with "colorized outside the mint".  The coins I have "do not have stickers" ....OMG .   I searched high and low throughout the NGC instructions provided and reviewed the list and types of coins not eligible for grading. I could find nothing that says NGC will not grade and encapsulate coins "colorized outside the mint".  This is highly irritating and at a minimum, coins ineligible for grading should be returned and we should not be charged for "grading" that does not occur. I personally don't need a purple sticker with a number. 

    NGC does not have every coin on this planet in the Registry so in defense of Namvette68 this is not a fool proof way to verify coins are genuine especially if they present as genuine. A lot of new issues aren't in the registery. Could we get better instructions from NGC? Luckily I was out only a few coins but others may not be so lucky and it's a scam by NGC to not disclose this right up front.
