Can US and World coins be combined for a re-holder order?

OriginalDan

I have a small group of world coins and a small group of US coins that I'd like to get re-holdered. Some have damaged slabs, others I'd just like a trueview. I'd rather avoid double the shipping and handling costs, and decrease the chances of USPS losing my coins by combining into one package both ways.



If all PCGS is doing is reholder - printing new tags and taking a picture of the coins - is there a reason we can't mix world and US coins for such an order?



Yes I'll call customer service tomorrow, but may not have time to wait 30-45 minutes on hold. Figured this was a faster route in case someone else has done this before.

Might have something to do with why certain world coin must be in secure holders.

You can always email your inquiry to them...no phone hold involved & they usually respond promptly during business hours.

Good point, although I would send them all under Secure service since you get the pictures for free.

Really? I've tried this a couple times and gave up after not getting any response. Maybe this has gotten better lately.

Just send them with a dealer to be reholdered at a show.

As far as using one package you still can...at least on the way there that is. I have sent in multiple orders there in one pack but they shipped back seperate for each order. That's all I know about that

Yes, really. I've always had a fairly prompt response as long as you identify who you are ( Name & home phone)

It is my understanding that you can only have one service per form, but you can have as many forms as you want when shipping a package to them. However, once they are done at PCGS, they are not required to wait for all the orders to be done to ship them back in the same package. They will usually ship them back to you individually, with a shipping charge for each package.
