I sent in my first set of coins for PCGS certification ...

LanLord

... over this weekend. I have been checking their website daily since sending them in. Is this an example of impatience? Anyone have any kind of recommendation on how long it usually takes for "standard service" to make it through the system and get posted?

At least they show up as received now.

Lanlord - Standard service has been taking as little as 15 days.

It was taking 15 days as of the beginning of this month.

You mean "regular" service? 7 to 10 days... but PCGS is closed Thurday and Friday..plus the weekend. maybe the end of next week... most likely the week after that.


What are the coins? What grades do you think they are?

Your not alone.Anyone who has sent coins to any gradeing service has checked repeatedly for grades.

Here is a tip! You will get a e-mail saying the coins are graded. But the e-mail comes 1 day after the grades post!! So I still have to check them every 4 hours!

Here is what I sent with my grades

1962 Franklin Pr67cam (hoping for a 68 on this one)
1964 Kennedy Pr67cam
1964 Jeff Pr68 this one had killer color on it, I left it in the mint sealed plastic so no doubt on AT
1971s Kennedy Pr67cam

Just keeping my fingers crossed now.

Don't count on it! You never know with PCGS. One of the members here sent in a recent proof set for slabbing, had PCGS open it and everything. Got the quarter back in a body bag as a counterfeit.

Oddly enough .... I sent in my first set of coins to be graded as I still hadn't taken advantage of my free four. I sent them in Friday and the invoice # showed up in the system this evening. I sent them from Milwaukee, so if you're on the east coast you might need to wait another day.

Does the mint now make couterfit?

Anyway the last group I sent in took about three weeks.
