Do you think it will affect the selling price? Honestly, not a whole lot as it's an extremely rare coin....not to mention PCGS is wrong IMO. Given the value of the coin, I'd crack it out of the PCGS slab and send it to NGC or ANACS next. It's well worth playing the old crack and resubmit game until you get a clean slab with a grade. That will maximize the resale value. Then again, if you're in a hurry and tired of the games, you could just try to sell it on ha.com with a high reserve.

Got it back today here are pics. they aren't great. Now should I send it to ANACS raw or as a crossover? my only concern would be that it looks like there are more Close AM coins than there really is if I send it raw.Any opinions    |

I do not know about resubmitting but what PCGS did was wrong.

^ I agree! Not up on my TPG codes. Why was this deemed ungradable? Did they not want to dirty their pop. report with a lower grade variety of this type? |

They don't want to commit to the toning on the coin as NT.

That's a completely normal color for a twenty years old cent. It's very common for them to have that iridescent bluish/purple color as skin-oil starts to oxidize them. Unless the pictures are misleading and it's bright neon purple in hand, I don't know what they're thinking. I see a hundred like that in every box. I don't even know what the motivation would be to screw with the color of a 1992 CAM.

It's because they didn't want to grade it the first time when they thought it was a worthless 1992. They can't change their original grade now that it's not worthless.

Definately break it out of that slab. Again, PCGS was WRONG, this coin looks as natural as any and the CLAM designation is obvious without a slab.....the slab provides NOTHING and takes away everything. I'd go NGC next personally.

Bournepiper, follow BadThads advice. If you have any doubt of the potential value go and buy the book "Strike it Rich" With Pocket Change 3rd edition and look at page 5. Hang in there and good things will happen.

If you break it open and resubmit it will give a false number in the overall total but not in grade total.

crack it out, send the label back to PCGS, and send it to NGC. If they genuine it too, send it to ANACS.

I agree with markj11. They had committed to not grading it and couldn't back down. Send it to NGC and if that doesn't work out, send it to ANACS. And good luck.
