mdpmedia Pillar of the Community United States 3546 Posts	Posted 04/08/2018 3:44 pm I'd like to first know if after sending any coin to be conserved at PCGS, if they or have they ever labeled their own conservation work with a 'conserved' stamping or marking on their slab? Next, would PCGS be likely to opine 'before' receiving a PCGS-slabbed coin with TrueView if that particular coin could subsequently be successfully 'conserved' ? This obviously implies that PCGS has already finished and sent the unconserved coin/slab back to its owner with the owner then returning it back to be conserved. I ask this since it seems more likely for them to know the probability since the coin already survived PCGS' own entire grading process with only the conservation piece being omitted etc. Report this Post to the Staff

They won't give hard opinions based off of pictures, they want to see things in hand. At best they'd say it's a candidate but they won't decide what to do if anything until it's in hand Report this Post to the Staff

Conder101 Bedrock of the Community United States 17884 Posts	Posted 04/10/2018 10:36 pm NCS was the conservation arm of NGC, they would do conservation work and of the coin would still straight grade it would then be sent on to NGC for slabbing. The only material you see in NCS slabs, or coins which had problems either before, or that were discovered during conservation, which would've prevented them from straight grading. Once NGC began putting detail graded coins in their holders, NCS slabs were no longer needed and they were phased out. PCGS was doing detail graded slabs before they ever started doing conservation, so no "PCGS conservation" slabs exist.. So a coin that PCGS conserves might get a details label but there will be no mention of the conservation. Report this Post to the Staff
