Very good information. I have gotten a few coins graded over the years with both NGC and PCGS. I know some old coin collectors that grade their own coins, but this is very difficult to do and a lot of them never sell. If you ever want to sell your coins I agree that grading the coins is a must.

Great video and information. I have been getting coins graded for many years. I have used both PCGS and NGC, and have had positive experiences with both. For higher value coins it does tend to get a bit pricey but well worth it in my opinion.
Thanks for watching. It is definitely worth getting coins graded if you are a serious coin collector or if you see coins as an investment. I look forward to hearing from you again soon. Best, ACI
Since you've had coins graded at ngc. Can you send in a group of coins that are in a plastic case from a mint. Or do you have to break them out before sending them in.
Just wondering about sending a maybe very valuable coin off in the mail. I was reading about people not sure if they got the same coin back that they sent. Maybe a mix up. It makes me nervous about how often it could happen. Especially with a game changer coin.
Hi Cyndi, Thanks for watching and for your question. There is always a risk with mail, but if that is a concern you can always go with Fedex or UPS instead of USPS which is far less reliable. I would also get the package insured. As for mixups at the actual grader they are very unlikely. I would take pictures of everything with the submission prior to packaging to keep as proof. I hope that helps. Please consider subscribing if you have not already. Best, ACI
Currency World.....as I read the gentleman's comment, his concern was not the mail, but getting back from the grading company his coin and not another coin. Could you comment on that possible problem?
Thank you for the image scale showing what different grade categories my coins will fall into. Saves me a lot of time and Money. Thank you. Happy holidays brother.
Hey thanks for this video. My father left me his coin collection and I'm trying to learn what all the little symbols and designations on the cases mean. Truly appreciate the info.

Hi im just full of questions i came across 1dollar bill with a i call it a floating 7 the serial number is out of line would that be worth anything? What does a gradeing company do to paper currency?
@@sylviatrevino270 Thanks for your question Sylvia, I am always happy to help. I am not sure what you mean by a floating serial number. As for currency grading companies I recommend PMG, PCGS internationally, and Legacy (formerly known as PCGS in the US). I hope that helps. Best, ACI
@@currencyworld hi this is sylvia on the currency the 7 is higher up not even with the other serial numbers an thats just on one side of the serial numbers.

Hi Rahn, Thanks for watching. I am glad you enjoyed it. I briefly touch upon the cost in the video. This cost excludes shipping and handling. Although grading can get pricey, it is worth it for high grade coins. ANACS is also a good service, but I would always recommend PCGS or NGC as these are the services preferred by most collectors. As a result, coins graded by PCGS or NGC also tend to command a higher resale value. I hope that helps. Please consider subscribing if you have not already. Best regards, ACI

Hi Dave, I appreciate you thanks for being a great subscriber. It's great to hear you are new to the hobby and are enjoying it. I hope this channel was able to help you along the way. Hobo nickels are interesting, I would consider them more as art or historic pieces. It is difficult to verify which are old and which have been recently produced as there are many of these circulating online, many of which can be purchased relatively inexpensively. Best, ACI
I have a 1948, 1962 and a 2003 silver dime. A 1944 mercury dime. A 1964 silver quarter. Tons of wheat pennies (trying to collect one from every year they were made, oldest is 1910). And many more coins. I need to get them graded!
Hi NoMyth, Sounds like you have a great collection already. Do you only collect modern US coins? Please consider subscribing if you have not already. I look forward to hearing from you again soon. Best, ACI
@@currencyworld, actually no. I have several coins from other countries. The thing is is that I don't travel and I don't buy. So, my collection only consists of coins I've found in the U.S. or that have been gifted to me. I have a Canadian gold dollar coin. I have a canadian penny with a pig on the back. I have a 1984 and 1962 canadian penny. I have 3 coins from Mexico that I can't remember the amounts of. A have 2 Euros from Spain. I have 2 yens from Japan. I have a 200 pesos coin from Columbia. A quarter from the Bahamas. And I think that might be it from other countries. But like I said, I haven't left the United States.
Hi Makinmilk, Thanks for watching. I am glad you enjoyed it. The answer is yes, you will generally know how much the grading service will cost prior to sending the coin off. For very high value coins (100 plus) they will charge a percentage of the coin's value, otherwise grading has a flat fee. Best, ACI

I have a question please, I got a 100 dollar bill from the bank this morning and part of Washington’s hair was in the blue line. Also they do not line up with other bills.
Hi Virginia, I am a bit confused. Is it a $1 bill or a $100 dollar bill? One dollar has Washington on the front. The $100 has Ben Franklin. What you are describing seems to be a print error. The value would depend on the condition and the severity of the error. Please subscribe to the channel if you have not already. Best, ACI

Thanks for posting this helpful video. I just started coin collecting over the past year. I kept all the change I found interesting sitting in a jar for over 6 months. I hit a needle in a haystack and almost didn't know it. I had discovered a 1971 Cameo Washington Quarter from the San Fancisco mint inside a quarter roll at the gas station I work at months ago, I tossed it inside my jar of silver nickels not even realizing it had been in there I went to check my nickels yesterday and found it. Looking to get it sent to PCGS to have it conditioned, graded, and re-cased. I'm still trying to wrap my head around how it even ended up in a bank roll as I've only seen proof cameos on collectors sites, and like most cameo strikes I'm trying to find out if it was a coin that escaped from a collectors stash or if it had graciously been tossed inside a roll at the mint and survived thinking it was one of the freshly minted 2023 quarters? I can not find any info on whether or not the mint ever circulated cameo strikes outside of collectors sets in 1971.

Very good information on this particular video, my only question is how do we mail a coin into NGC or PCGS, meaning how do we insure that the companies get a coin we want graded?
Hi Howard, Thanks for watching. Very good question. Both NGC and PCGS have a preferred way to mail and even provide slips for mailing the coins. My recommendation would be to send via a trusted service like Fedex or UPS, and for very high value items send it insured. Another option would be to attend a show where PCGS and NGC do on site grading and submit the coins in person. I hope that helps. Please consider subscribing if you have not already.

Usually they do not offer to buy coins, but some grading companies do offer to help sell coins now. I am not sure whether PCGS or NGC has this sort of program but it is worth looking into, they would probably take a percent if the coin was sold with their help.

Hi Virginia, Thank you for watching and for your questions. To answer your first question it would depend on how expensive and rare the coin is and how much grading will help the marketability of the coin. If this is a coin you are looking to keep in your collection I would not recommend having it graded. If it is a question of authenticity then it may be worth having it graded. As to the second question washing or cleaning a coin in any way will always lower the value and the grade the coin will receive, I would never recommend cleaning a coin. I hope that helps. I would love to have you as a subscribing. Please consider subscribing and hitting the bell notification icon if you have not already. Best, ACI

Just wondering about sending a maybe very valuable coin off in the mail. I was reading about people not sure if they got the same coin back that they sent. Maybe a mix up. It makes me nervous about how often it could happen. Especially with a game changer coin.
Hi Cyndi,
Thanks for watching and for your question. There is always a risk with mail, but if that is a concern you can always go with Fedex or UPS instead of USPS which is far less reliable. I would also get the package insured. As for mixups at the actual grader they are very unlikely. I would take pictures of everything with the submission prior to packaging to keep as proof. I hope that helps. Please consider subscribing if you have not already.

Currency World.....as I read the gentleman's comment, his concern was not the mail, but getting back from the grading company his coin and not another coin.
Could you comment on that possible problem?

Hi Rahn,
Thanks for watching. I am glad you enjoyed it. I briefly touch upon the cost in the video. This cost excludes shipping and handling. Although grading can get pricey, it is worth it for high grade coins. ANACS is also a good service, but I would always recommend PCGS or NGC as these are the services preferred by most collectors. As a result, coins graded by PCGS or NGC also tend to command a higher resale value. I hope that helps. Please consider subscribing if you have not already.

Great video. If I submit a coin will I know how much the company will charge prior to me sending it off?
Hi Makinmilk,
Thanks for watching. I am glad you enjoyed it. The answer is yes, you will generally know how much the grading service will cost prior to sending the coin off. For very high value coins (100 plus) they will charge a percentage of the coin's value, otherwise grading has a flat fee.

Hi Virginia,
I am a bit confused. Is it a $1 bill or a $100 dollar bill? One dollar has Washington on the front. The $100 has Ben Franklin. What you are describing seems to be a print error. The value would depend on the condition and the severity of the error. Please subscribe to the channel if you have not already.

Thanks for posting this helpful video. I just started coin collecting over the past year. I kept all the change I found interesting sitting in a jar for over 6 months. I hit a needle in a haystack and almost didn't know it. I had discovered a 1971 Cameo Washington Quarter from the San Fancisco mint inside a quarter roll at the gas station I work at months ago, I tossed it inside my jar of silver nickels not even realizing it had been in there I went to check my nickels yesterday and found it. Looking to get it sent to PCGS to have it conditioned, graded, and re-cased. I'm still trying to wrap my head around how it even ended up in a bank roll as I've only seen proof cameos on collectors sites, and like most cameo strikes I'm trying to find out if it was a coin that escaped from a collectors stash or if it had graciously been tossed inside a roll at the mint and survived thinking it was one of the freshly minted 2023 quarters? I can not find any info on whether or not the mint ever circulated cameo strikes outside of collectors sets in 1971.
You got the basics covered professional and informative

Very good information on this particular video, my only question is how do we mail a coin into NGC or PCGS, meaning how do we insure that the companies get a coin we want graded?
Hi Howard,
Thanks for watching. Very good question. Both NGC and PCGS have a preferred way to mail and even provide slips for mailing the coins. My recommendation would be to send via a trusted service like Fedex or UPS, and for very high value items send it insured. Another option would be to attend a show where PCGS and NGC do on site grading and submit the coins in person. I hope that helps. Please consider subscribing if you have not already.

Has a coin gradeing company like for instance pcgs ever offer to buy coins or currency from the individual?
Usually they do not offer to buy coins, but some grading companies do offer to help sell coins now. I am not sure whether PCGS or NGC has this sort of program but it is worth looking into, they would probably take a percent if the coin was sold with their help.
Again..we will be watching all of your videos..

One more do you think washing it can change the grade to a lower or higher grade? This was informative I needed this information THANKS!!
Hi Virginia,
Thank you for watching and for your questions. To answer your first question it would depend on how expensive and rare the coin is and how much grading will help the marketability of the coin. If this is a coin you are looking to keep in your collection I would not recommend having it graded. If it is a question of authenticity then it may be worth having it graded. As to the second question washing or cleaning a coin in any way will always lower the value and the grade the coin will receive, I would never recommend cleaning a coin. I hope that helps.
