Who the heck knew that NGC has a "Non-Eligible Coin Type" that will guarantee your coins will be body bagged with no chance of receiving any type of refund... This is why I really don't care for the so-called top grading services, yet they slab mint scrap (waffled) garbage that was NEVER MONITIZED as legal tender..
*vernon ends rant*
I purchased this coin a number of years back (don't remember the year) as a flip-over double struck ancient from Claudis II ~ Antoninianus...
If anyone knows Ancients and can add comment to this coin, please advise...

Broken Coin,

I realize I'm in a very small minority with this problem, but when you type in all letters in some colors, I can't see anything you wrote, without holding up special filters to my monitor, as I'm extremely colorblind, and I simply don't know what's being said. I'm not sure, but I think you type in red or green, because those are my worst colors. Blue and yellow are also hard for me, but I can generally make them out. I'm not trying to be critical, but I actually like what you have to say, when I can see it!

JMerrick, I have the opposite vision problem, I have trouble reading the black type and add color as this makes it easier on my eyes to post... Advise and I can copy & paste my color comments in a "Quick Reply" below the comments, also advise on what is the best color for you to read... THANKS

Biokemist6,
Thanks for posting the info, I would assume that NGC does not slab coins dated before 500AD, then again, I don't know the date of this piece and paid them to receive the exact information...

BC,

How about anything but light blue, light yellow, and anything remotely red or light to medium green?

Here's what I found about NGC and 'ineligible coin types'. Directly from their website:

"INELIGIBLE TYPE describes a class of coin, medal or token that NGC does not certify, regardless of its condition."
