VERIFY Your Exonumia. Thanks for your interest in EXONUMIA ! Exonumia Defined THANK You for your interest in VERIFYING or AUTHENTICATING your exonumia: Slave Tags Indian Peace Medals Other Tokens, Medals, etc. Option One: Quick Review We will review a clear digital picture of your item and provide an immediate response for a fee of $10.00, payable via PayPal. I will tell you if I think it is genuine or not, via email. Why do I charge? Because my web site costs me $50 a month, plus about 10-25 hours of work, and I no longer have time to provide free information. I have LOTS of free info on my web site. There is NO CHARGE if I cannot provide a definitive opinion, and NO CHARGE if I buy your item. Write FIRST BEFORE sending pic. Option Two: Detailed Review and Letterhead Reply Ship me your item, I will carefully review it, and provide a written response on my letterhead, for a fee of $15.00, plus the cost of return postage. I can generally respond within 48 hours. There is NO CHARGE if I buy your item. Option Three: Formal Certificate of Authenticity If you would like a formal, photographic certificate of authenticity, you MUST ship your item. If you are unwilling to ship, see Option One. If you would like a formal certificate, you need to ship your item to NCS/NGC via registered mail. The fee runs $30 per item plus $20-25 return postage per order, and will take one to three months for return. NOTE! NCS is well regarded in the coin business, they are reputable and your items will be safe with them. Numismatic Guaranty Corporation - NCS While they offer other services, NCS/NGC does offer authentication on Slave Tags and Indian Peace medals, and other exonumia. You get a photographic certificate, picturing your item obverse and reverse. NCS/NGC is the only organization that I am aware of that is currently formally authenticating exonumia. I have them do all my Slave Tags and Indian Peace Medals. HOW TO: If you would like to have NGC issue a formal certificate, you must go through an authorized NGC dealer. Send me a check for $30 per item, plus $20 return postage per shipment, a brief description of your item(s) and I will forward the NGC formal submission form to you. You then send the form with your items DIRECT to NGC, and they will send them directly back to you. If your package is valued over $4000, send $25 for return postage. If your item is genuine, I want to buy it! Option Four: Do it Yourself Research your item yourself: See this LINK for suggestions on researching your item. INDIAN PEACE MEDALS: I NO LONGER BUY ANY Indian Peace medals without NCS authentication. I will buy all Slave Tags with or without papers. The ANAAB (American Numismatic Association Authentication Bureau) has gone out of business, and no longer will authenticate coins, tokens or medals. SELLING Your Exonumia: Tokens, Medals, etc. I am MOST interested in BUYING your genuine Slave Tags, Indian Peace medals, all tokens, medals and other exonumia. I pay TOP PRICES for genuine items! If you have a Slave Tag or Indian Peace medal, I am unable to make any offer unless you either SHIP for my top offer, or have it formally authenticated by NCS or me. About 97% of the Slave Tags and IP medals offered to me are modern fake or fantasy items. See my pages on FAKES and Indian Peace.
