Coins arrived today... I have often been told results that are posted are better with images... so once we have images I plan to share the results. Images are worth more than what I am capable of writing.

Received my world regular submission grades on business day 61 (1/21/22 -4/15/22). TruViews posted the same day.
Received my world regular crossover submission grades back yesterday, 65 business days (1/21/22- 4/21/22). Went 8-8 for crossovers with 3 1-point upgrades and no downgrades. Still no TruViews.
Have a world econ submission sitting in grading at business day 66 with no end in sight.
you guys are looking at this all wrong - each coin submitted is exhaustively studied for months, committees are held to debate the pros and cons of each individual coin and nobody leaves the room until consensus is reached, each capsule is lathed by hand by master craftsmen and women, every coin is escorted at all times by multiple heavily armed ex special forces, shipping uses the finest handmade artisan tapes and bubble wraps, if you understood the quality treatment that happens behind the scenes, you'd never question these turnaround times
I have a World coin submission (6 coins) at PCGS that was delivered to PCGS at the Long Beach show on 2-17-2022. This submission was "received" on 2-22-2022 and has stayed there ever since. It has not yet moved from "received" to "grading".
I have no clue when this submission will move forward through the process and be returned to me.
My world submission was received on 4/1/2022 and moved to grading last week. I'm not expecting anything within 3 months based on everything I'm hearing from others.
7 U.S. regular submittal . Quoted 50 working days. I am now at 66 working days coin still have not moved?
Let's see maybe 4 grading teams times 200 coins a day equals 800 coins per day now times 66 working days equals
52,800+ coins graded before my 7. That's a very very long line? Diswading me from more submittals UGH!
NGC is alot quicker.

impressive results!
Which countries?
Central American Republic, Chinese Empire, Italy, Papal States.
My last sub currently at PCGS had the grades pop on Friday 5/20, 86 business days for world econ (delivered to PCGS on 1/21). The coins are still in QA today, which seems a little out of the ordinary. Encapsulation took about a week and after moving into QA took another 2-3 business days to get grades.

World regular submission marked received on 4/13, which includes the last two to make my WCIEA completion "official." I'm thinking grades probably won't pop until after the 6/30/22 deadline for this year's registry awards, though.
Still "received" as of today, but they've identified what the coins are.
It takes until someone kicks one coin back to grading. Could be quick, could take a while. Meanwhile, my order is now over 2 months in the "received" state.
Just received grades from our hosts on 3 coins which were submitted on the economy tier at the Long Beach show. Waiting to see them in hand, but the grading results were slightly better than expected — so worth the wait! May post once they are back in the fold.

After over 2 months in "received," my order is finally in "grading." Now if they can just it done by next Wednesday I can add them to my set in time for the registry deadline.

BWAAAHAHAHAAA!
Hope you get them in time!
Regular service level. I'm not going to get them in time for this year, which is a pity. Two would make my World Coins in Early America set 100% complete and the others would fill in the run in my Prime Number Set from 1579-2003. I figured sending them at the beginning of April, when my 4 Reales showed up, would be cutting it close, but apparently it's not even close to cutting it close.
I still have a piece at PCGS that was received there on March 9th. Tomorrow (July 9, 2022) will be the four-month anniversary of its sojourn in Long Beach.
@jt88 said:
I believe if your submission stay at received for a long time is because PCGS has a hard time or needs time to identify the coins.
I think there's something to this. The piece I have that's been in limbo for four months is rather esoteric- a 1596 jeton from the Spanish Netherlands.
LOL. Probably. When I went to the Baltimore show last month, I cringed on drop-off of coins at our hosts and the other TPG - will I ever see the coins again? Also, my last punishment with them almost drove me away from such endeavours.
Love that Milled British (1830-1960) Well, just Love coins, period.
My walkthru order was received on 6/27 and was shipped yesterday. another one also shipped yesterday that was received on 1/9/2022, regular submission.
I'm brainstorming possible solutions and one promising idea would be to draft/kidnap good graders at the next Long Beach show and force them to grade like 100,000 bullion coins until their pupils bleed and the first one who does it right gets a big balloon full of money and maybe an 8-coin grading voucher. it could kinda be like coin Squid Game.
Well, if you want to pay walkthru price then you can get it back in 7 - 10 days. I have a coin I can send express but I sent walkthru instead so I got it back in 10 days.

The kind that nobody pays so that they never move?
you need to start thinking about PCGS as free secure storage, drop your old undersized safe deposit box and send everything to PCGS in the cheapest tier possible, then they'll store your coins free for a few years while teams of experts meet in a consensus circle where they consume peyote, burn sage and summon each coin's spirit, one per week, to divine each coin's inner grade, the key is forgetting about collecting during this time and focus on other hobbies like RC cars or horses

I wonder how many months it takes for them to work down a 3 month backlog.

Three calendar months since received, still in grading. I’m guessing another month at this point.

I paid for a world express.
I want to thank our hosts for the credit they offered me!

4 months since my coins were received on 2/2/22... still in encapsulation. Very frustrating.
Uggh.

@Bob13
Look at the bright side, I have 3 coins from a collectors club submission from January in "encapsulation."
So, there is at least one person worse off than you.
Unfortunately for everyone, there are a lot of forces converging at one time that have really strained many businesses.

Historically it has been 2-3 days. However I'd expect up to 2 weeks right now.

OK - now I see "Grades Ready" and "Images Ready" but Still says grade "In Process."

Grades popped today! So received on 02/02/2022. Grades ready 06/22/2022. It says "Images Ready" but no TVs yet.

@Bob13 - Any surprises? Its been a long buildup to this reveal ...... I hope you had a winning hand this time around.
Edited to say I didn't see the results in the other thread. Well done!

My world econ sub is at 113 business days today and still in grading. Anyone have me beat?
I have more coins to sub but I am reconsidering where I'll do that out of fear of not getting coins back by end of year.

seriously, no offense to our gracious host intended, what are world turnaround times across the street nowadays?
I'm sitting on like 250 regular submissions, I don't want some 6 month debacle
Express has been taking about a week, standard 35-40 days.

hmmm... that's a big difference, probably a little looser grading and fewer details grades, cheaper, do I get a massage with that too?
I have a regular submission in right now at over 75 days.
