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 PHOTO PROOF service also provides an entertaining and informative chronicle of the background of your coin, to place it in its historical
context. Prepared by NGC’s 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 coin’s qualities of strike, luster, toning and rarity. Pedigree and variety information may also be included, as well as a personalization of your choosing.
Coins you submit for NGC grading can also be digitally imaged and presented by NGC’s PHOTO PROOF. PHOTO PROOF IS AVAILABLE ONLY TO NGC-CERTIFIED COINS.
