Today is the 15th day of my regular submission...can somebody post some eye-candy to distract me?

I keep wanting to check like, eh, every two minutes or so (estimated turnaround for world regular is 15 days right now).

    I have the same problem. Sent a coin in under express when the turnaround was at 5 days (7 days now). Started checking the status a few times a day since they received it on the 14th image

    Here's some eye-candy for you:

    I'm waiting, too. Mailed my submission on 10/30, received 11/05. They should be ready by the end of the month (I hope). I received the US coins sent at the same in 2 weeks, a record for me.

    My submission was received on 10/29 so you can figure yours out in relation to that. Here's to hoping you don't have to wait over the weekend.

    The Lion Dollar graded VF35 at NGC. It was cracked and sent to PCGS where it also graded VF35. I'm actually surprised to get the same grade, for a series that I consider hard to grade it is nice to see some consistency. Not that I care too much about grade on this one...I had a few vouchers so figured I'd use one to get this one in a P holder.

    Precisely in the same boat here! Submission received on 10/28 and nothing published yet. I must be generating half of the traffic on the PCGS site checking and re-checking and re-re-checking whether grades are posted yet... :-(

    I bought this coin, at the starting price, in order to keep on receiving the Sincona catalogues, which along with Numismatica Genevensis are the only ones that I keep (plus some exceptions).

    It graded PCGS MS67, not too shabby for a 1914-B. Still, it's one of 8 at this grade, which I assume is a top pop nevertheless.

    Syracusian:

    There is something about turn of the century BU silver from Switzerland, Finland and Russia that really makes my heart skip a beat. Common coin or not, the luster of those issues always turns my head.

    And Zohar, just stop posting pictures of your coins. Santa will give me no presents if he sees how jealous I am. So just stop.

    Let us know if you still feel that way when it's time to sell your coins. Seriously. I would be curious to know if World PCGS coins are valued higher than World NGC coins. That seems to be the case for US coins.

    I think in Asian coins our hosts have the lead, but still trail behind ATS in the Europe and Ancients categories. That's my understanding and 2¢
