PCGS Submission Question

Hi;

I want to submit some coins for grading to PCGS. They want us to use 2 1/2 x 2 1/2 flips for holding the coins. I've only seen 2x2's. Anyone have a source for the right flips?

Thanks....

  • It does not matter. You could probably send them in loose and they would grade them. I have sent in hundreds in 2X2 flips with never a problem.

    I send em in 2X2 flips all the time, it doesn't matter. But for anything larger than a quarter you may want to use 2.5X2.5 because it's easier to get them in and out.

    Just make sure you use non-PVC flips, especially for proofs. Because the time they sit there waiting in them it will ruin the coin.

  • PCGS calls them Saflips. As long as you specify "inert" or "mylar" you should be fine.
