Thanks! I will try it out later today...

Does this mean NGC will have immediate Registry validating/updating when you add NGC coins to your sets, like PCGS does?

 

Thanks

Yes...that functionality is on its way. We will announce it very soon.

I sure that you guys and gals are woring on this, but how do you keep someone from pirating a Cert. number from an existing Registry Set?

[Beijim]

Oldtrader,

 

As I understand it, when a collision occurs between an attempted new registration and an outstanding registration for the same certificate, NGC contacts the holder of the existing registration to verify that the transfer to new ownership is legitimate. No verification, no transfer.

 

I assume (but am not certain of the details) that a similar mechanism operates where PCGS coins are concerned.

Yes. There is a security measure in place to alert us when a coin (whether it is NGC or PCGS) is already registered to someone in our Registry.

 

As we verify the entries, any coins already registered to another user automatically go to a special handling area where we can see who currently owns it, who is submitting it now and make a decision about how we want to handle it.

 

Of course both parties are notified when this happens so we can determine where the entry belongs.

I thought that probably was how you did it. Thanks for the info.
