Quote from Navysquirrel on November 19, 2011, 8:29 amHello all, I have a very unique piece of history that i would like to share with you all and maybe get more info. I have a Willson Dollar Die that my grandfather had aquired when he was in WWII during the destruction of the Manila Mint. I guess, I would like to see if i could find someone that could put a dollar sign on it. It is the the front side that has Wilson's face on it that is not Defaced. Thanks for your help. edited by Navysquirrel on 11/19/2011

Quote from bill on November 21, 2011, 7:11 pmYes, there is a definite problem with NGC's census, at least back quite a few years ago. I have contacted them on several occasions to tell them that a So-called dollar that I had purchased was not in the census. The lady that I spoke to each time told me that they were trying to update the census, which also had some HK numbers out of sequence. She told me that anytime I found a NGC slabbed So-called dollar that was not in the census, to call or e-mail her and she would include it in the census. Everytime I have contacted her, within a few days the census included the item that I had called about. I have her name and e-mail address if anyone else needs to have an item included in the census. I can say that all submissions that I have sent to NGC in the past few years have been included in the census.
