Appearance review question

[dan1ecu-migration]

I am about to submit a coin for an appearance review. There are green spots that could be PVC on both the obverse and reverse of my NGC MS65 Barber quarter. Do you think that I should include a note with my submission telling them what I think the problem is? Is that a good idea?

 

Maybe I should e-mail NGC and tell them that the coin is on the way? What is your experience with appearance reviews?

 

Thanks,

 

Dan

Yes. Otherwise they might think you are sending it in because it is overgraded.

and this is from my personal experience!

 

they do an excellent job are professional and timely they take care of it for you

 

this is waht i would do

 

1 call ngc and speak to customer service and tell them you are sending in a coin for appreaance review and state the problem with the coin simply and to the point

 

they will tell you how to do it step by step

 

 

usually you send it in write on the form in a few short words the problem with it

 

green spots possible PVC on obverse and reverse of quarter

 

and then send it in registered mail with the correct return postage and handling costs

 

and await their reply!

 

i am sure with their guarantee/NCS this can be resolved to your satisfaction

 

also tell them what you are looking for wthi this coin

 

replacement? fixing the problem and returning the coin to you? other

 

call customer service first and dsicuss all of the above with them

 

they are collector oriented and are ready and willing to help you

 

let them!

 

good luck and let me know waht happens!

 

keep me informed

 

sincerely michael

Dan,

 

I sent in a Barber Dime recently that had some spots on the reverse and some really dark, fingerprints on the obverse. I filled out the form, and attached a letter with my concerns about the piece. When the coin was returned, NGC had lightened the fingerprint to where it wasn't distracting and removed the spots on the reverse.
