HELLO

 

THANKS AHEAD OF TIME

 

MY QUESTION IS WHY ARE THE POINTS DIFFERENT IN THE NGC COIN EXPLORER THAN THE POINTS THAT ARE IN THE REGISTRY FOR THIS COIN.

 

REGISTRY POINTS---85

 

EXPLORER POINTS---179

Thanks for the question. The NGC Coin Explorer shows the highest possible NGC Registry score for a particular coin. In certain sets, however, the coin may be scored lower. For example, in a Type Set all coins of the same type receive the same score, which may result in scores lower than those in Date Sets, especially if the coin is a better date. In certain sets for varieties, the variety may also receive a point premium.

 

It's also possible that this could be an error, so if you point me to the specific set I can take a look.
