Numismatic Guaranty Corporation, NGC, has announced special labels will be available for the upcoming 2020-W American Eagle. The coin, set to be released by the United States Mint on January 9, 2020, can be submitted to be graded with the option of one of these special labels. Additional fees apply.
Additionally, for collectors who will be attending the 2020 FUN Show in Orlando, NGC will be there and can take submissions for the coin at the show.
Below is the full Press Release from NGC as well as submission instructions.
The 2020-W American Eagle One Ounce Silver Proof Coin is being released January 9, 2020. NGC is offering its Early Releases and First Releases designations as well as its West Point Mint Gold Star Label to distinguish these coins.
Among the most popular coins struck by the US Mint each year, Silver Eagles now come in several finishes. The classic Proof version features frosted design elements and a mirrored field, beautifully augmenting the much-admired “Walking Liberty” design.
