Is the 70 the same coin pictured, the Birds & Flowers (Colorized)? If so that is quite a coup! 

Unfortunately, not. Gold and silver coins from china lunar serie.

What happened to three months? 

Well, NGC was very fast this time But state is still "Quality Control/Finalized", so not yet at the submission center.

Hello,

As far i know, the new holders are airproof and waterproof, right?
 

So there is no need to put them in an additional ..... "plastic bag" like the old ones?

Anyone ever tested a holder?

Thanks & Best

Results are in, ... was not wort grading it

But at least i had luck with other ones which got 69 and 70,

Like a heat sealer?

Kind of, but the content is not getting heat. Generally i am very careful when handling coins :-)

Exactly how do you do that?

I use a vacuum sealer machine.

I put my coins in those flips, and then the flips are going to be vacuumized and sealed and shipped to NGC :-)

If i remember correctly, at the Munich office, there are Flips available with round corners. Not sure if they are still there....

Some of them begin to peel off sooner or later....?

Never had problems with colorized Chinese coins, Exempt this one.... Accidentally dropped something on the coin, when preparing it for grading   So this was my fault.

Well there you go.  I will stay out of the colorized coin threads from now on... apologies. 

I only collect coins which are legal tender and not modified , all those coins colorized by a third party are imho a disaster. It should be forbidden, imho.

I would think that it's no different than if the coin took a hit, or contact marks. It'll depend on the severity or amount of ink missing. Colorization does add another level in that the centering of the ink can go against the grade. 

Thank you.

Will share the result in approx. three months here, when i get the coin back. :-)

I agree with @RWB.  Your coin was painted/colorized after it left the mint.  In the eyes of the grading companies, anything that happens to a coin after it leaves the mint is "damage", so this coin would not grade.

There are people who specifically collect colorized coins.  However, because the color is peeling, most collectors would pass-it-over for it's more intact counterpart.

If you enjoy the coin... keep it and enjoy it in the capsule for as long as the color lasts.

It was colorized by the mint.

Question is impossible to answer without examples and clearer phrasing, such as what is meant by 'piled off.'

Color spitted off.

(The coin is not yellow, this is a cam problem).

Sometimes it takes up to three months, IMHO there is nothing unusual.

Hello,

Wondering which grading a coin is getting, when a small part of the color is missing/piled off.

UNC Details? Or just a lower grade?

Thank you

Feature request, it would be useful to have this tracking in the NGC Dashboard.

If the fees are lower, ... the credit will be added to the next invoice or how does it works exactly? Noticed that it is not always added to the next invoice.
