Submitting Coin ?

jclout

I am new to getting coins graded. I have a few Proof coins that I'd like to get graded and PCGS states to : House your coins individually in flexible plastic flip (we do not accept acrylic snap cases).

Does this mean that I have to remove the coin from the US Mint case?
If I do have to do this what is the best way to transfer coins to the plastic flip?
Won't putting it in the flip give it a better chance to scratch?
Whats the best kind of flip to use?
Any links to this info would be great.

Thank You

I haven't done this yet, but I am told that if you send in a proof set in its original housing, and want every coin graded, they will do it, as long as every coin gets graded.

Jclout, Any coin that you have from the US Mint, in the mint capsule, may be submitted to PCGS just as it is packaged. You should slip the encapsulated coin into a 2 1/2" X 2 1/2" flip and label it per PCGS requirements and they will remove the coin and grade it.
