    Will PCGS be using the 70 point grading like they do for coins for these medals or just "BRILLIANT UNCIRCULATED"?

    More importantly, will they be donating $1 for every sept 11th coin they slab to a worthwhile cause?

    Should they re-use the US flag insert if they do slab these? This way people can have a matched set for 2001 and 2011.

    If a major promoter such as HSN sent PCGS or NGC 10,000 of these medals, PCGS or NGC would probably slab these with a fancy label and grade them "BRILLIANT UNCIRCULATED". Didn't PCGS slab coins with Obama stickers?

    For those interested...I just got of the Phone with PCGS & yes they will grade them under the Modern Tier ($14) and the medals will be first strike eligible, ($18 per coin) if submitted within the first 30days of issue..Oct1

    I read somewhere, can't remember where, that PCGS will only slab medals that were struck at the US Mint, so
    this one qualifies.
