Just curious how long the process is currently taking. I submitted at Baltimore and my order has been "received" as of 6/21. How long have your orders been waiting for authentication and grading... and then moving on to the finalization and encapsulation process... Thanks in advance. Best, Leo

    Give them 2-3 months before you worry about it.
    They aren't exactly quick.

    Yeah, it's 40 business days for Regular Submissions... I was just curious about the breakdown of the process.

    Here are what my turn around times look like. I think PCGS is fastest after January and slowest after august.

    were those received dates about right?

  • RiveraFamilyCollectRiveraFamilyCollect Posts: 630 ✭✭✭✭

    Yes the received dates are accurate

    I submit raw coins to Great Collections, they take them, send them off to PCGS (they say they use the most appropriate grading company to grade the coins but mine always seem to go to PCGS). The last batch I sent off took right at 4 months to the day from submission to GC to return and put up for auction. That's not an excessive length of time to wait.

    It isn't a grading submission, but I sent off 8 coins for the reholder service. Received 7/5 and shipped today (7/16) -- seven business days.

    3 crossovers using regular service received 5/31, grading 6/2 and there they remain. No add-on services requested.

    Luck of the draw I guess. This is a reholder:

    and so was this...

    Best wishes to you. I need to send another reholder in a week or two. Hopefully my luck holds out this one last time.

    My goal was to submit that coin to CAC at the ANA along with another half box of coins...i'm not optimistic that it will be back in my hands in two weeks.

    Fingers crossed for you.

    I upgraded a coin in my set after sending these off for reholdering. I sure wish I'd have waited, but you just never know when a coin you're looking for will show up. Therefore, I'll just have to suck it up and pay two-way shipping, the order fee, and reholder fee for a single coin. My PCGS subscription expires in September, so I hope I can get it there and back before then.
