What he describes is financialization, not actual collecting and which isn't remotely anything to celebrate by actual collectors, as it has nothing to do with collecting at all. Don't believe me? Look at the terms he uses, like fractional ownership and sight unseen buying.
Mr. Salzburg's letter is for marketing his product and helping NGC's bottom-line. This letter is encouraging people to use his service with the promise of continued value for the collector. However the letter is a showcase of how NGC can make maximum profits while encouraging new collector's to take the financial risk. What a crock of bologna.

We can hang out here. I have been submitting clad quarters for grading. They are in my registry with 11 more being graded at PCGS right now. Grading out at MS65-MS66. My lowest grade is is a 2019-W Frank Church MS64 so far. I have a 65 clad included in my submission, hoping for a low MS or high AU. Clad on!
That's awesome, so glad to connect with a fellow high grade clad collector. It is difficult searching through modern state quarters to find the ultra gems. There are usually a couple of nicks, machine oil from the mint, or poor strikes. Do you have any tips on how you do it successfully?

That's cool Kurt, I collect 67+ as a minimum

Does anyone know where the clad coin collectors hang out online? I want to connect with people that search for high grade state quarters, etc

Yeah Zebo, this is my first membership with ANA. I see it as an opportunity to get an autograph and an oz of silver, plus ANA benefits.

I got a Jeff C. Garrett !!

I got one, at least I think I did. I just bought a 3 year gold membership.

Can you be certain these were "Early Releases" or just a clerical error from a mint worker?

NGC sells labels and profesional opinions, not coins.

Where can we see this toning? Pics of coins?

Thanks Greenstang. I have 2 submissions that I am excited to have graded. Is there a place where people talk about when they submitted their orders, what stage of the process it is in, etc? Like a thread where people keep track of where NGC is at in the process? Thanks.

it would be fun to see where everyone is at with the process

I was agreeing with you and using different language to support what you were saying. Telling me I am pointing out the obvious seems rude. There are multiple members on this message board that bully new members with seriously negative attitudes. A message to NGC: The negative Nancys and bullies on this message board are cutting into your bottom line. I have no desire to spend any more time here or submit further coins. I thought this was a place where people would be helpful but I have found that attitudes that are not shared (or ones that are agreed upon) tend to be done so in a Greek fraternity hazing ritual atmosphere. The numismatic rank and order pushes new collectors away with the supremacy attitude. I'm off to search through clad state quarters, where I will enjoy my time thoroughly.
