NC is the old designation system, with the "C" indicating it was a CAA certfied aircraft. There was also NX, the X being for Experimental, and aircraft such as the Gee Bee racers and prototype Mustang fighter used that designation.
The C was done away with and all aircraft with that designation just became plain N. If an aircraft, such as mine, originally had the NC designation it has become legal to paint that on the airplane, but in official records they are still just "N".
