1900 Blank Pond with rim NGC PO0Genuine
Holdered by NGC, but not assigned a numerical grade, which is NGC’s standard treatment of South African blank ponds. The example photographed above is the rimmed version of this historically important coin, with concentric scraper marks on one side.

Numismatic Guaranty Company (NGC) is a world leader in coin and banknote authentication. Their experts have certified over 60 million coins, combining precision, transparency, and innovation to give collectors and investors total confidence in every piece they own. This is a direct conversion of the 70-point NGC grade to the new NGCx 10-point scale, intended to present the grade in a more intuitive format for newer collectors. It is not our personal opinion or an attempt at regrading the coin to a different standard.
