learner New Member United States 1 Posts	Posted 04/27/2016 12:01 pm I have bid on a 1879 2nd reverse morgan on ebay graded by NCG. Is this grader legitimate? I had a moment thinking NGC. Report this Post to the Staff

Although their web site was last updated in June of 2000, their E-mail address does not work. I am fairly sure they deliberately chose their name in order to be confused with NGC and to try and trade off of their reputation. Company is now out of business after producing only a couple dozen of the first slab variety and just a few hundred of the second. #2 NCG (Company name not known) Private company beginning to certify coins under their own name. He caught so much flak over his NCG initials for the firm that he dropped the whole project and never sent out any of the slabs. So theoretically this companies slabs are not available and now only exist as the plate in this book. -----Burton 50+ year / Life / Emeritus ANA member (joined 12/1/1973) Life member: Numismatics International, CONECA Member: TNA, FtWCC, NETCC, EveryCountry (online) coin club Owned by three cats and a wife of 40+ years (joined 1983) Author: 3rd Edition of the Sample Slabs book, https://www.sampleslabs.info/ Report this Post to the Staff
Slider23 Pillar of the Community United States 4469 Posts	Posted 04/27/2016 2:12 pm It is best not to purchase a coin in a NCG slab. If you do want to buy one, treat the coin as raw and expect any coin graded MS to be no higher than AU. Report this Post to the Staff
