Questions about my first submission

I want to submit some coins to PCGS for grading, but I'm a bit confused. It looks like I plan on sending 4 economy, 1 regular, 1 reholder and 1 crossover. Is this 4 separate submissions? Is there a minimun quantity? Can I send all four submissions together? Any help or advice would be appreciated.

  • You are correct that is 4 different submissions. You can ship them in 4 seperate packages in one package. Hope this helps and GOOD LUCK with your submissions

  • Also there is a 5 coin minimum for either a regular and economy submission.

    The regular submission no longer requires a 5 coin minimum. At least that what it shows Online.

    Also, I was under the impression that the 8 free submissions were to be of the same type? Am I wrong?
    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.

  • I just printed a submission sheet today and it say 5 coin minimum I will check with PCGS and find out for sure. I am not sure if you can mix and match on the 8 free submissions you do have to submit all 8 at one time. Something esle to look into with PCGS.

    I did not read where this is an 8 Freebie submission (Joining as a Plat. member).

    Even if it was, I am under the impression the coins have to be submitted under 1 'type' (all either raw, or all regrades, or all crossovers).
    On an 8 Freebie submission there would be no distinction between economy or regular.....so send in your most expensive coins!

    Sounds like an everyday type submission, so, yes, 4 different submissions (once you get the min. quantities). All can be shipped in 1 box, each type seperated and return shipping paid for each. image

    PS- When you say, ...1 reholder...., do you mean you're looking for an upgrade, or is there something wrong with the holder or a mechanical error?

  • There's nothing wrong with the slab I want to reholder. I don't think it will grade higher. Its an old small slab.

    This isn't a free submission for me. Do I have to have 5 of each type to submit?

    I just sent my 8 free submissions in two weeks ago and they are mixed.

    I have cracked out coins to make the 5 coin minimum-not sure about the coin, but you may want to consider it if you have confidence the coin will regrade.

    Yes, you do, for Regular, Economy, Modern.
    Btw...if you have a PCGS "old small slab" and you don't think it will upgrade, you are doing yourself a likely $$$ disservice.
    It is more likely it would sell for more, if/when you decide to sell, in the old holder (particularly if it is a copper coin).
    Is it a rattler? If so, leave it.

    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
