PHOTO PROOF
NGC's Photo Proof service utilizes the latest technological advances
in digital photography to capture your NGC certified
coins in precise full color enlarged images. For PHOTO
PROOF presentation, your coin is enlarged to as much
as six times its actual size (depending on the type
of coin). The Deluxe and Classic PHOTO PROOF services
also provide an entertaining and informative chronicle
of the background of your coin, to place it in its historical
context. Prepared by NGCs Director of Research,
this text brings to life tales of triumph and tragedy,
of visionaries and fools. With our Deluxe service, each
PHOTO PROOF also includes a detailed analysis of your
individual coins qualities of strike, luster,
toning and rarity. Pedigree and variety information
may also be included, as well as a personalization of
your choosing.
