    There is a slabbed NGC 1 oz gold coin I am considering buying on eBay.  The coin is a proof with a limited run of about 1,000 I think, and they are all numbered.  The seller has less than 100 feedbacks.  Should I be wary of buying a slabbed gold coin like this on eBay?  Do people break the slabs and replace the coins?  I've never spent bought a coin at this price but I really like/want it!

    If I do buy it, can I send it in to the NGC for validation?

     

    Thanks!

    Well there is a dealer I buy from in tenn..........he's legit........sellers name is hallssteam90 .

    As I mentioned before, your coin isn’t a Proof and neither is the other 1937 that’s been posted to this thread. So I don’t understand why you’re mentioning anything about values for Proof examples. Additionally, there are numerous price guides that are far more accurate and up to date than the “Red Book”.

     

    I think I can justify a grading, if I'm wrong Oh well if I'm right oh well...is it a proof? Time will tell. I think a professional grading will do a better job than a photo on a forum...no offense.

    There’s no way to provide a meaningful grade guess from those images. Do you know how high the coin would need to grade in order to recoup the grading cost?

    As for values....you brought it up, not me.....as the op I have an obligation to reply to any post or should I just go away??

    red book has a pf 63 at 1200.00 seeing as this is not an ms variant then the logical amount is negotiable for an auction type response......so in a word......sure, what are we talking 50 bucks tops.....I blow more than that at the track....

    Best I can do.  I would be happy to send this to you gratis, at my cost.  You may want to wait to have the congregation comment first. 

    Send it I'll send it to ngc and keep you in the loop.......I can't in good faith take without giving.......I have a bunch of Morgans and even more American Eagles.........even proof ase's.....how about a 2018 proof? No coa so I'm kinda stuck with it.

    If what you've opined is true, and I implicitly trust the verdict of a highly revered member, I would be honored to offer the OP my own uncertified 1937 Buffalo (in slendid condition) which I was prepared to use as my last free grading credit until I apparently forfeited it when, with two months left to go, I declined to renew my membership ATS and my free credit was unceremoniously clawed back with no notice to me, and both my user name and password were stricken from the records.  I will post my nickel here, obverse and release, and if it meets with both the OP's and congregations' approval -- I will post it to you without delay free of charge. 

    there is plenty of time.......I would think the nickle may be worth the actual cost of a grading, which I would pony up if the consensus agrees worthy....and the penny and dollar hold its course to the annac company, for what it's worth if sent to me, I'd send the nickle to ngc and absorb the fee's .

    That nickel looks like a polished coin from the pictures and I would not submit it.  The 09 Lincoln is common, but popular and looks to be in good shape.  The large cent looks pitted and should not grade without caveat.  What does the weak D look like?  Still might be worth submitting if it's good.

    no it isn't worth it.....it'll be the vdb and a 1878 cc morgan ...both in for not being counterfeit, the 1909 isn't cleaned.....Of that I'm sure.Here's the 1878 cc
