    Help me out here. "FREE QUARTERLY SUBMISSION?"
    I am at least a gold member but have not heard of this. Wazzup?
    I decided to change calling the bathroom the John and renamed it the Jim. I feel so much better saying I went to the Jim this morning.

    Quarterly Collectors Club Grading Special
    Gone, but not forgotten... for the second quarter of 2004 (April 1 through June 30), PCGS Collectors Club members can send in one coin of any denomination that is no longer used (such as a two- or twenty-cent piece, or three-cent nickel) for free grading and authentication. Each coin will be graded and authenticated through the Regular Service, which takes 15 business days. All that you have to pay for is the postage. This offer is for Gold and Platinum Members only.

    This is taking from the PCGS E-zine
    e-zine

    I haven't seen any recent e-zines

    Hope this helps.

    Someone else I think can help better or maybe it is on the Q&A forum?

    BigE: I guess now's the right time for me to dig out my old Columbian Exposition Half Dollar -- which is the only Classic Commemorative that I own -- except perhaps for a few gold ones ... image

  • I don't think that your Columbian Expo half would have qualified; halves are still circulated!!

    Same here. I didn't know anything about it.

    Years.

  • This quarter’s special is TWO YEAR TYPE COINS. These are U.S. coins that were made for only two years.

    Examples would include the 1866-67 Shield Nickel (with rays), the Type I Standing Liberty Quarter (1916-17), No Stars Seated Dimes (1837-38), No Motto $10 Liberties (1907-08) and others. Even the Flying Eagle cent qualifies (1857-58) as the 1856’s were technically patterns. How many others can you find?

    WHat's the deal with the quarterly special? Free or discounted submission? Without or without other coins? Etc.
  • Free (for gold and platinum members). Has to be submitted on its own invoice, so you have to pay return S&H separately for the one coin.


  • << <i>WHat's the deal with the quarterly special? Free or discounted submission? Without or without other coins? Etc. >>





    ?????


    I'm not sure if I follow your question.

    This is a free submission of one coin per quarter Gold or Platinum collectors club member. The coin must be submitted on its own form with its own return shipping.



  • PlacidPlacid Posts: 11,299 ✭✭✭
    Carol do commemoratives that were made for 2 years only count?

    Example: Pilgrim Half Dollars (1920-1921)

    Can we use this free submission for a regrade?

    Thanks for the info! I guess I need to go out and get some of these just to take advantage of the "freebie". Right?

    Ummm, reading some of the posts, I'm confused (yeah, again)..
    I've sent in the quarterly freebie, along with other coins, on the same submission and never had a problem? Have things changed? Do they really require their own single submission now?

  • RYKRYK Posts: 35,797 ✭✭✭✭✭
    Frankly, the way the deal is set up, I am generally not inclined to use it. Even if you tag it along with another submission, the return trip for the coin has to be paid for individually (about $15). Unless I am missing something, it really is not that great a deal.

    Full disclosure: Possible sour grapes for DNC on my recent and only quarterly freebie submission.
