new holder by NGC for problem coins

[Dene]

I had hoped that this would grade as NT but I had my doubts and they agreed. This is their new holder for problem coins. Mine says UNC Details Atrifical toning.

I like the fact that they are not attempting to net grade the coins in these holders.

what happened to the prongs?

[Dene]

Guess they don't use them in problem coins. never liked them anyways

just say no to prongs unless they can make crystal clear prongs and can make the prongs so they do not go into the dentils

Yay! No Prongs!

[WoodenJefferson]

Wouldn't NGC use up any NCS holder material, like labels, coin inserts or is this a complete internal holder change?

[Dwaine]

They are still using up their inventory of no prongs. I still get some recent submissions not in prong holders and then some come back in them. Not sure why.

I'm guessing he was trying to get them to approve the toning. Naturally Toned peace dollars are very scarce, and garner a significant premium. The catch is, there are many many AT'd ones. NGC's approval would multiply the premium on this many many times.

Just like they were saying. If NGC would have given it a certfication of say MS-63 or better with NT, the price would be way over what just a MS-63 untoned Peace would have been. Still a pretty coin which will go in my collection.
