hmmm... that's a big difference, probably a little looser grading and fewer details grades, cheaper, do I get a massage with that too?
A dealer I know sends his world coins to NGC and the few that come back with details grades go to PCGS to get straight graded.
I received coins back last week from a regular world submission that was received 5/16. I received my coins from a world econ submission that was received on 4/1 just a few days before that. It was around 130 days for the world econ one and closer to 100 days on the regular.
Ah, posting seems to have been the lucky charm and grades just posted for me at 4 months.
Highlights?
Well, I got back the 1982 New Hebrides 5 francs in 65 and the 1981 GB currency 10 pence in 65.
Plus the 1980 Panama 100 Balboas Canal in 69 PL
Love that Milled British (1830-1960) Well, just Love coins, period.

That's nuts, those times are potentially company-killing, is anyone that patient?
My econ order was received 3/15 and is still in grading. I'm not that patient and am not planning another sub at this point.
WOW! I just checked on World coin turn around times:
Express 25 days
Regular 85 (!) days
Econ 100 days
I guess I am glad they are being honest but that is a LONG time. Kinda takes the fun out of it.
