Got 'em in 49 days! I guess they are finally starting to catch up. I'm in the middle of a PCI Green label ( 10 and 14 digit ) experiment. This batch had 5 crackouts. Overall very happy except the 15d Barber that was in a ANACS MS60 holder but it is a blue/pink toned beauty. The 1881s Morgan is also a screaming orange and blue toned GEM.

I am going to post my Green PCI Labeled experiment results in about a month. I have 15 at PCGS and 10 at NGC. Not a large enough sample to be scientific but interesting none the less. Chris

in the pipe myself. I have been seeing a lack of PCI green holders on ebay in recent months.
Maybe the supply is finally drying up for these holders.
Please check out my eBay auctions!

Agree with darktone-
Are you randomly sending in PCI crack outs, or only sending in the PQ coins?
You paid 62 money for 1878-7tf, how about the others? ( Esp the 1904-0)?

Heywood, I have not discriminated in any matter. Every coin I've bought is sent away but realize I only buy 63 or higher so they are decent coins to start with. I pd. 50 something for the 04-O. I'm doing this more out of boredom than anything else!
Darktone, PCI ten and 14 digit coins are very close to PCGS in many cases. But ,I would avoid paying a premium on their Prooflike designated coins. Even 10 digit green holders in "PL" haven't done well in my "study"! PCGS is very strict on PL and DMPL. Chris
It was working out well for me until my latest submission.
3 Franklin Halves, all slabbed in old 10-digit green PCI as PR67 Cameo,
all 3 returned as PCGS PR66

Yikes!, I'm debating submiting some gold-14sn Pr67 CAM Frankies. One Good shot at CAM, one weak reverse.
Still wondering, Send at same time, weak or stong first.

Were there any PCI coins that you looked at, that you could have won, but they didn't look "right" to you?
The only way to do an actual experiment is to buy random PCI green insert coins and send them all in. No picking, no choosing.
But, it looks like you got some nice ones from this.
I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment
