Kipster Valued Member United Kingdom 312 Posts	Posted 08/25/2024 12:46 pm Hi, After a recent illness, I'm catching up with some coins I'm looking to submit to NGC. This one is the rare B over RITTANIAR variety, but I'm concerned over the carbon spots (?) on the reverse. Is this likely to straight grade with NGC, or get details? Obverse is fine. Many thanks Report this Post to the Staff

Kipster Valued Member United Kingdom 312 Posts	Posted 08/25/2024 1:37 pm Thanks IGE, I haven't had anything with this graded before, so wasn't sure what the deal was. If seen some of the copper and bronze get straight grades with similar, but I can only try I suppose. Report this Post to the Staff

Kipster Valued Member United Kingdom 312 Posts	Posted 08/25/2024 2:55 pm Cheers frog, Would this be something that NGC conservation be able to sort out? Does that then get a details grade afterwards? Report this Post to the Staff
