Has anyone else noticed this? That PCGS is getting much quicker grading coins and getting them loaded in the data base for us. This latest one only took 13 business days. I would like to give them credit for this and listening to our feedback as of late. I was born in Ohio, so I was really pleased to see the 2 quarters come back MS-67. Just for the record... This is not a listing for sale. Once I get them back and if I do plan to sell I will list them on E-bay. 
I do have a question that maybe someone can help me with. I have noticed the 1976 (P) Bicent. 25c in MS-67 pop 53/0 normally goes for pretty good money and is sought after, but the 1976 (D) in MS-67 pop 44/3 seems not as desirable. Some ideas I have was that they are thought of as the 1976 (P) Ikes or maybe collectors are buying the (P) 25c because there are none graded higher. Any comments? Have a great night all.

Good score on that 76 quarter. I haven't seen the D mint offered as often as the P mint. Price is probably lower because of the 3 68's, but it should still be pretty close. If there is a large spread, the D mint is undervalued.

I found the 1976(d) and the two SB$ at a small town coin shop at christmas time back in Mo. I think I got all 3 coins under $7.00 I too wondered if the (d) mint is a little under valued. With the online pops, it makes information available to the collector a real handy tool and I believe has a lot to do with the short term (spike, up and down) prices. I'm really happy with it and needed it for the new sets. Thanks for your kind words.

anyhow, I noticed that they are faster too. My coins should be shipped back soon also.

I'm not sure if they hire summer help or not. What ever it is, it appears to be working for some.
EISQ222,
Just a suggestion... I normally mark on the outside of my mailer what type of submission is inside. They say this will not delay your coins from being opened. Like I sent in Regular/Modern in one box. That is what I wrote on the outside, so they would open it soon after they were done with express shipments. Not sure if you new this or not...Just trying to help.
