Do the TPG's return labels after crossovers?

Shamika

For example: If an NGC coin is sent to PCGS and is crossed, does PCGS send the label back to NGC? Does NGC do likewise?

PCGS sends the label back to you. Not sure about NGC.

When I submitted hundreds of crack outs to NGC in the 1988-1990 period, I always got the inserts back. Most of them went back too to clean up the pop reports. I was a good do-be. I have old PCGS inserts around the house so they sent them back too.



I would suspect that the majority of crack out labels never made it back to the TPG's.

Because of this, pop reports are skewed to the point of pure inaccuracy.



Most rare coins are MUCH rarer than the pops suggest, so I don't even follow them much anymore.

My response is in complete concurrance with the aforementioned...yes...for PCGS, they send 'em back.
