Hello,
How much does it cost to get one coin graded by NGC? I checked their website and it has a lot of information, but doesn't seem to help.
Do I have to send a minimum of five coins? Edited by Canadian-Banknotes 01/13/2011 9:31 pm

Prices are based on a few factors, such as value of the coin, how quickly you want it graded etc. Your best bet would be to print out a submission form and have a look at that, or take it to a dealer who submits to NGC and ask them to do it.

CanadianBankNotes, I know what you are saying and it's the reason I ended up with ANACS. They just seemed to be more user-friendly.

You'll have to use the Early bird grading tier, so $30, plus shipping.

Seems rather expensive. I guess that doesn't include shipping or insurance either.

It's more economical if you have at lest 5 coins, then it would be $12.50 plus shipping and insurance. This is one reason why slabbing is right for every coin. I usually will only slab a coin that is at least wroth $100 or is a variety as it is so much easier to sell a variety coin or most any coin for that matter that is slabbed.

I find this whole slabbing idea very intimidating and confusing. I have looed at all three TPG and it seems if you dont fill out the form correctl they will just send it back.

Quote: This is one reason why slabbing is right for every coin. If this is true, then you would never sell a coin to me. I buy the coin, not the slab. The only way I will buy a slabbed coin is if I find it at or very near the price of the unslabbed coin. Needless to say, I own no slabbed coins. Grading is a matter of opinion.

I think he left out a word. I think he meant to say "This is why slabbing is not right for every coin."
