I have several slabs where they got the grades wrong on the label.

I have heard of several slabs NOT having the proper attribution added and had to be sent back repeatedly...I hope that I don't have to resort to that with my present submission, three of four attribution noted...one remains for three weeks now, stuck in queue.

Most submission forms have a statement about the submitter checking the coins on return. Have found the grading companies usually fix the mistakes pretty quick.

POTD!!!
humor aside, I think the use of the term "mechanical error" by any TPG including PCGS is rather cowardly, and I have them by most every TPG including PCGS. as a matter of fact I just received a "mechanical error" back from NGC that was submitted for the same thing. they got the catalogue number correct this time but still the wrong date, absolutely ridiculous. if a coin is clearly dated one thing and the label says another there is an obvious "human error" involved that the TPG should just accept responsibility for.
for my entire life I have been held to account for my mistakes at work.

I have to agree. The term "mechanical error" never made sense to me. Sounds like a machine malfunctioned rather than a data input error on the part of a human employee. Let's call it what it is---"human error".

Your bound to have a few mechanical errors out of 36,000,000 submissions but those errors represent just a minuscule percentage of the total that were correct.

you probably shouldn't cosign their BS. when someone make an input error to print the label they need to proof-read and correct their mistake. if they miss it, someone checks it after them when the are finished. it is simple --- multiple people need to pay closer attention to what they are doing.
I give up. What's wrong with the 1879-S Morgan slab?

Thanks. Are you sure it's not a rare branch mint proof?

I wish I was that lucky, the rims aren't square enough, it's undoubtedly a business struck Morgan.
