Not Suitable for Certification

I just received a coin back from NGC in a body bag with a label stating "Not Suitable for Certification". I requested "details grading", and a couple other coins in the batch did come back encapsulated with a details grade. What does "Not Suitable for Certification" mean?

Thank you for the post. "Not Suitable for Certification" indicates coins that are severely damaged or otherwise impaired. The surface condition of these coins makes it impossible for NGC to render a conclusive opinion about authenticity, Details Grade or both. When a coin is determined to be NOT SUITABLE, NGC will refund the grading fee, less a $5.00 processing charge.
