PCGS Multi-coin holders

I sent in an email over a month ago asking customer service if there were any multi-coin holders currently available and what types but never got a response. I figured they have pandemic issues to deal with so I understand, but was wondering if anyone knew? I looked through the site and didn't find anything, but that doesn't mean it isn't there.

They have two-coin, three-coin, four-coin and five-coin multi holders. The two-coin multi holder should be available through normal submissions but anything else is only offered through the Bulk department at the request of an Authorized Dealer.
On a side note, my most recent email inquiry to customer service was on January 14th, I just received their reply earlier this week.

They should have plenty of the double holders

a 5 coin for the quarters would be nice.
I am fond of the Double Holders
They were a total flop. I still have a couple laying around someplace.
I could see a market for multiple coin holders. A lot of people collect birthyear sets, anniversary sets, PDS sets of a type/year, and many other possibilities. Sure, there is a cost, but costs are recoverable, and people will pay the price for memorabilia or collector passions. Cheers, RickO
The multi holders are nice, but by and large it is a hassle when it comes to sell. Afterall, you've got to find the guy that wants all the coins in the holder instead of just one.

I agree. It would be cool to have for a small set you didn't plan on ever selling, but even that decision would cause issues for heirs when it came time to dispose of any inherited coins. Still would be interested to know exactly what options were available.
Looks like PCGS Hong Kong started doing these.

Seems like PCGS USA doesn't do this and as mentioned, selling down the road would be a pain. I get the reasoning behind wanting this though.
That article is from December 2017

Yes, indeed. And when you ask a PCGS phone rep about two-coin holders, they refer you to an article from 2012. Link
IMHO, this is an opportunity for improvement.
PCGS has a webpage that details the available coin and banknote holders. Link
If PCGS offers multi-coin holders, they should be included there.
% quarter holders would be great. A Group ot different coins for a type set would super too, but costly. Love the idea,

They used to multi holder proof sets like the AGEs and Platinum Eagle fractional sets.
Those looked awesome

I have most likely posted this one before.
Still a favorite combo holder of mine.
That’s awesome! It would be great to have for 2021 as well!
This custom PCGS multi-holder done for @cardinal is awesome!

I'm not a big multi-coin holder guy but I do like this recent pickup:

Love the split insert!
Reminds me of the split window Corvette Sting Ray!
Was curious about it and got the 2021 ASE Designer Edition set (type 1 & 2) encapsulated in a dual holder.
Looks pretty nice but storage will be tough just like those GSA hoard clunky holders.
