ummm.....quarterly grading special of key dates/mints? if that doesn't scream "we need these coins in our plastic to keep up the perception that we're a top rated TPG!", nothing does.
I believe they offered $10,000 to the first person to submit some coin or other - can't remember what it was, but I do remember thinking they wanted that coin in their plastic and were willing to pay for the advertising.

I'm on vacation so that is just fine with me. Not having Longacre to kick around on these boards must be a shock to a lot of people.

i noticed in NN that ICG is running a special "grade the keys for free" right now.......that seems to answer the question right there (apologies to PCGS as i realize this is their board)
Owners of a certain early proof set have enjoyed multiple upgrades as the services fought to get the coins into their holder. Don't look too close at what appeared to me to be a pinscratched out spot on one of the coins that's gone up twice.
