What is a pedigreed NGC coin? Are pedigreed coins worth more than similar non-pedigreed coins?
A. An NGC pedigreed coin is a coin bearing a label with a name such as “Eliasberg” on it. NGC recognizes pedigrees based on the importance and significance of the individual coins or collections. A hoard (or large grouping of coins) may be recognized for pedigree based on the same factors. As with all other coins, the value of pedigreed coins is determined by rarity, condition and demand. This value may be less, the same or more than similar non-pedigreed certified coins.
