World Coins and Medals Inc. is an
authorized dealer of Numismatic Guarantee Corporation of America
(NGC) and assists collectors and public with submissions of world
coins for NGC grading.
We accept world coins in all metals including regular
coinage, commemoratives, patterns, essays, novodels, pieforts and
mint errors. We do
NOT accept for grading United States coins, ancient coins, medals
and tokens. The minimum order is 5 coins but it is economically wise to submit at
least 15-20 coins or more.
All business is done by mail only. All deliveries to New-York State addresses are
subject to NY Sales Tax.
NGC fees for grading for different
services, coin values and turnaround times are posted on their web site:
http://www.ngccoin.com/services/services.aspx.
Turnaround time is approximate and is not guaranteed. Cheaper services like
"world value" usually have higher actual turnaround time than the one provided by
NGC due to high volume of coins for grading at NGC. Please also note that cheaper
services do not include Scratch-Resistant Holders,
we strongly recommend upgrading to this kind of holder (slab) for
an extra $5 per coin.
In addition to NGC charges we will charge shipping fees to NGC and back to you,
as
well as $5-20 per coin (depending on service chosen):
World value and world modern -
$5/coin
World gold and world standard -
$10/coin
World Express or oversized coins
that require special slabs - $20/coin

and service tiers please do not hesitate to e-mail us at any
time.
We will notify you about every step
of the grading
process and delivery via e-mail. Once your coins will be
processed and prepared for
an NGC grading we will calculate the total and send you PayPal
invoice so you can pay for grading services online with PayPal. If you do not
have a PayPal account you will still be able to pay with any major credit card
through PayPal. PayPal fees of 2.9% plus $0.30 will be added to your invoice for
domestic customers and 3.9% plus $0.30 for international customers. We will
screen your coins and choose the appropriate and least expensive NGC services
and grading tiers, prepare your coins for grading, determine
appropriate
(fair) insurance value for each coin (mandatory for insurance
purposes
while at NGC and in transit), check for varieties if any, mint
errors, etc.
We do not give opinions on grades
and authenticity before authenticity is verified and grades are actually assigned
by
the NGC. We also do not help to eliminate any coins from grading
that may later
be found "not genuine" or "no grade". It is entirely up to you
what coins you want to send for grading. Any non authentic coins will be returned
ungraded with labels stating "not genuine" or "questionable authenticity". All
problem coins if authentic will be slabbed and problem noted on
an NGC holder except coins with certain surface problems such as
PVC or artificial toning (those will be returned not in a slab). NGC does not
return any money paid for coins that are later found "not genuine", "no grade" or
not put in a slab for any reason.
