just received this Morgan from NGC!

I purchased this Morgan (NGC MS64 holder) thinking it was a shot at an upgrade.

I usually don't do so good but I was happy with this one!!!

That’s a very nice coin. Congrats on the upgrade. Did you send it to NGC in the holder or did you crack it out first?

John;

I sent it in in the NGC'64 holder.

Beautiful Coin!

 

This example brings to mind a question I have had...

 

1. Is it better to resubmit NGC coins in holder to them for a chance at upgrade or crack?

 

2. Is it better to submit cross over coins cracked? (i.e. the "lesser" services)

 

Thanks to all in advance.

I have always submitted coins for crossover or upgrade consideration in their holders and have been happy with the results. I have had a number of coins upgrade that were sent in for crossover in their original holders.

 

I do know however that some believe they should crackout any coins that they are submitting and that is why I asked how Monty submitted his coin.

Here is the reverse.

I do think that NGC is harder on coins in other companies holders. I have sent in coins in PGCS holders that crossed at the same grade. Then sent them in again in the NGC holder to have the coin upgrade!

That's very interesting...I was wondering if the perception would be "Is this guy questioning us?" if I submitted NGC's to NGC or PCGS's to PCGS.

Great looking coin and congratulations on the major upgrade!

That is a very nice Morgan.

 

I love that color scheme and try to pick them up any chance I get.

 

Good eye and job on the upgrade.

I usually send them in the slab, mainly because I don't like to crack them if they are going to cross at same grade. However, most of the slabbed coins that I have sent in looked better to me than the original slab grade. IMHO, that is the purpose of spending the money for regrade services.
