PCGS Graders: "I Came into work today to grade this?!" (Part 1)

I've been digging around for some oddball coins and have set aside a few PCGS coins that are neat enough to share (perhaps?).
Here is one I am sure the graders who were assigned to give a determination were scratching their heads at.

Are we presenting an argument for graders to work remotely?
Experience the World through Numismatics...it's more than you can imagine.
i don't know about the graders but the investors are like:
wait for it
Is there a “details F-ugly” classification?
Pretty sure this one would be VF-ugly
The details on the reverse look more FN12 rather than VF.
peacockcoins
Definitely fugly
I would think that the occasional parking lot coin might spice up what could otherwise be a very boring day. MS70, MS70, MS69, hold on what is this.

Better that than another pallet of silver eagles.
Maybe some of the coins I submitted way back when too
Looks like it was plugged with construction adhesive. Peace Roy

Just commenting on the assigned details grade 😉
And another pallet of 2021 Morgans, and oooh, here are some more zincolns.
I agree, almost any classic coin would be a nice break, and wacky screwed up classics would bring a smile.
Too bad she wasn't in one of them old rare slabs with a cacs sticker. That Peace would surely command moon money then. THKS!
A different set of graders for moderns vs. classics.
(I remember a while back a seasoned dealer/submitter telling me if you have a wonderfully toned modern coin yet are unsure if it'll pass PCGS's scrutiny- send it with a classic submission. Those graders are more likely to pass the coin along as NT than modern graders.)

I don't think is will CAC
HAPPY COLLECTING
Will I get the quarterly special for last quarter or this quarter? The coins were turned in November, still in grading.

So this would be a CACA thread.... and subject coins would get a sticker
Cheers, RickO
if you made a sticker co. with mr hanky as the sticker, you can count me in to buy a few coins for sure.
Maybe cac needs a “brown sticker” but instead of usual oval shape is a little bit lumpy .... the turd bean

ya know, it would be nice if the coins they reject would be marked somehow. i think there is a chance it would help the brand.
It'll never happen. The stated reason being that CAC doesn't want to bifurcate the market. You could argue that's already happened though.

It has for those who follow the Pied Pipper!

i wonder how long the non-shield NFC holders ran. i really don't recall seeing too many. although it has the shield reverse?
Hey, I made that one, why'd they send it to you?
Probably slabbed for sentimental reasons. Who knows...

I'd like to see PCGS introduce a special grade category called "Junk Silver" that they could apply to bum silver coins they were forced to encapsulate.
This one wouldn't make it because it's 5% lead-based solder.
