More to the point, without the gold shield label?

Second question, can you get a gold shield reholdered without the gold shield label?

    Unless you are slabbing a stolen coin with distinctive toning or contact marks, why wouldn't you want a True View?

    Delay in returning the coin to you.

  • I have had the same question, actually, and it's basically because I am not a big fan of "True View" photos on certain kinds of coins.

    I have seen some in dealer inventories so I'd assume they could on request.

    It depends on WHEN and also what tier. For bulk submissions from major submitters (not the lower-level bulk submissions), they appear to not automatically have TV, probably because they pay less than $10 per coin. I had 700 coins from such a submission that had no TV images.

    In the past I have reached out to PCGS when a truly horrible and non-representative TrueView was on their site and they have removed the image for me.
