I saw on the statistics page this as the current turn around time for regular and economy submissions:
REGULAR 25 business days
ECONOMY 30 business days
All told, how long in calendar days should submitters wait from day of shipping to getting the coins back?
NGC is showing: 22 days and 27 working days respectively for their early bird and economy submissions.
How many calendar days also would one anticipate with them? Shipping, waiting for coins to get logged in, finished and shipped back.

This is always a tough question. I swear my economy submissions get sent back to the end of the line sometimes.
In any event, subtract out weekends, holidays and vacation days. A good rule of thumb then is 45 calendar days from the date the submission was entered.
I mailed a package to NGC just before Memorial day. Results just popped up last week. Still dont have them in hand though. Sent economy FWIW.
I have 2 orders that were received and entered into the grading system at PCGS May 18th and are still grading, another one from May 28th is just now encapsulating. So in my case at least 50-60 business days, or 80 plus calendar days, not counting shipping.
These are mostly US Mint medals and often take a long time. I just normally expect 2-3 months these days for my submissions.
FYI, I know of another NGC medal submission that was sent in May 6th that also just arrived, so it can be slow no matter where these are sent.

Regular submission at PCGS on June 21 was shipped today.
