Post the lowest PCGS Price Guide valued coin that you had trueviewed....

....and state WHY you had it trueviewed....


For me, it is probably this merc dime that is now on the way home. Bought from a forum member 3 years ago. I bought it for the look. It was in NGC plastic.
I was sending in a submission and wanting to get in on the CC Quarterly special and grabbed this one to add to the list.

It went from NGC MS63 to PCGS MS64.

I sent it in to have the color captured. I like the coin a lot. It "pops". So, even though the $10 Trueview was almost the same price as the value of the coin ($15), I am ok with that.
I paid multiples for the coin when I bought it and I wouldn't sell it for what I have into it anyway....so, to me, it was worth TVing.

    It might have a low value in the PCGS price guide, but I doubt anyone would be buying it for that.

    I sent a Merc dime in for grading and trueview under the first quarter collectors club special and I STILL don't have it back over a month later!!!!!!

    If it grades where I think it grades, it'll be worth around $14 or so in the PCGS Guide, but it's pretty image

    When looking at a coin like this, the price guide has little use. The coin would clearly command a larger premium. I like it.

    In response to your original post, I have, sadly, not had a coin True Viewed. I have, however, purchased two coins that came with a True View certificate.

    Cool image

    78Saen - where's the story and the value? image


    Illini420....it should be any day now. Mine was sent on 3/31 and entered into the system 4/5. It just posted today (I have been checking ~20 / day since Monday).
    I am missing 3 that I paid for trueview for (2 that didn't cross that I already paid for ahead of time, and 1 that I think/hope is just an oversight as it did cross but I can't find a trueview yet).
    When you get yours, I expect it to be posted here with your story image

    This is the OFAMERICA variety in MS 62. I sent in my 8 voucher submission for regrades, and paid for the TrueViews for the first time. The white coins look satisfactory, but the toned ones look great.

    Ok... finally got grades for my quarterly special trueview submission this morning!!!!! I previously posted about a Mercury Dime I sent in raw, thinking it would likely grade MS64, maybe MS65 (value of either $14 or $22 per PCGS Price Guide). The coin has awesome toning so I figured it was worth sending in despite the low guide price. I bought the coin off of one of the local coin shop's weekly bid boards for $11 image

    Well, now that the grade is in, it doesn't really qualify for this thread anymore as it graded MS67!!!! WOW! Nice surprise and I guess I need to brush up my grading skills before that Long Beach grading competition, hahaha!!! Trueview should be in later today and I'll stilll post it here.

    SP67 RD, Price guide has it at $20, I was hoping for a SP68 grade on it. Still a beautiful coin IMHO.

    image

    Followed closely by this MS63 1913 Type I Buffalo valued at $50 in the guide, I thought 65 before submitting, but think they got it right. Think it's fairly obvious why I TrueViewed it.

    love that 13 buff...image

    in the same boat as you illini420 with tru-views to be released soon as grades just posted
    except i didn't score no 67...image

    one of mine was stupid on my behalf in a 56-d that ms63bn'd...with the hits and the color wasn't drop dead either...oh well i'm not perfect

    the other....a 1958 tru-viewed that ended up as a 91...so it's right there with my 56-d on value...both show zero in price guide...lol
    i live-i learn
    will drop those 2 in here anyways

    i take it a better route is to wait untill a coin has a grade then return them for tru-view???

    Price guide says $13. PCGS ended up making it their plate coin in Coinfacts:

    I didn`t have this trueviewed but it came with the purchase.

    Pop 327 all grades

    PCGS Price Guide $29.00

    The Pop to Value on many coins sometimes just doesn`t compute to me.

    This is the lowest valued coin I have ever had TrueViewed.

    It also happens to be the ONLY coin I have ever had TrueViewed.

    I wish we could pay for TrueViews on only part of a submission. Customer service told me it was all or nothing.

    Ok, the picture is in and it came out 1000% better than I could have ever done with my camera set up!!! And scoring an MS67 grade is just sweet even though it pretty much disqualified me for this thread image

    Here it is:

    Wish I could find more coins on the bid board that look like this one!!!!!

    << <i>Yes, now you can ask for TrueView photos on part of a submission. >>




    My submission was with my 8 voucher, and it was received by PCGS the middle of February this year. Customer service told me then that I had to do all or nothing on the TrueViews. Nice to hear this policy has been changed. Some coins are too white to see much benefit, and some simply are not worth the extra $20 for TrueView.

    Policy change? You've been able to select a coin or coins out of your order since last year at least when I got my first trueviews. Before summer of 2011. I learned about it on the forum about applying a sticker and labeling it trueview as well as on the submission form and including the fees to cover one coin or all coins being imaged since there was no information available on the website.

    Good luck, would love to see some of your coins imaged. image
