Does anyone know who's in charge of variety attribution for PCGS and how they may be contacted?
Thanks

Great question, Ron. It would be nice if PCGS had a specific number for many of their various offices with people who could answer or at least investigate our questions.

Thanks, Jim. Hopefully someone here knows the answer.

Thanks, Lance! I don't have anything specific for attribution. I just have a couple of questions to the head guy in the variety field at PCGS.
oops. don't know why my brain processed why you were asking about VV. apologies.

That's a good idea. Maybe send an email and suggest it to them?
I would recommend PCGS set up a section on their website for technical inquiries, with subsections for specific categories. Having people available for telephone sessions can be difficult, especially since there are so many different aspects to varieties and other numismatic areas of interest. A website section could be addressed by experts in the categories questions would be submitted. Even if done weekly, it would be a great service/resource. Cheers, RickO
I just need contact info for the head guy (or girl.)
You could ask @BrettPCGS .
That might be a good start.
