VAM designations took 26 days

DennisH

Submitted these for VAM designation and they went "live" in the PCGS system April 25. The VAM attributions were actually done almost three weeks ago (per the online cert. number verification function), but it took until today for them to finally get put into new holders with the updated inserts. That's much longer than it's taken in the past, and is hopefully only a one time thing.

Nice haul! Mine went in the system on 5/1 so I hope I do not have much longer to wait. They were regular submissions with variety attribution.

My oldest one "went live" 4/17 (although I sent it 4/11 overnight) & I'm still waiting.

Wow! 3 VAM-9 pieces! Does your VAM-1N have the break cud?

There's the vam 9s again. Wow! Dennis you must have cherrypicked every 9 in your region.

DennisH

These are the same three VAM 9s as in my earlier post from a month or so ago. My first post said they had been graded; now they are designated on the holder inserts as well. ( I stopped sending in coins for grading and VAM designation all in one process because it seems to slow down the process absurdly.)

RBinTex

Not only does it slow it down but for the ones they disagree on, DNC, or body bag you still get whacked with the $15 attribution fee!
