What is PCGS's policy ?

I recently purchased a 1910 St. Gaudens in an old
PCGS green label holder graded 65. The label is
starting to become wavy and the coin is starting to
look greenish (possibly from old flip). Will PCGS
regrade the coin? What are the cost involved ?
etc.

    If you want to keep the original holder, you have no real option.
    If you are concerned about the coin and not keeping the label, you can send it in for a reholder (cheaper than regrading) and it will get a new label/holder.
    If you want it regraded, yes, they do offer that as well. Guaranteed to NOT go down in a grade (or, if it does, for some reason, then they will compensate you the difference plus the coin).

    $10 for a reholder.....$25 if you submit under grade guarantee.....$30 if you submit for regrading (they will crack out any of the submissions and then look at it raw)

    I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment

  • They will reholder the coin as long as the holder is not significantly compromised.

    If as you describe there is the possibility the coin has PVC, you said "green" keyed this to me, contact customer service for getting it fixed. They normally do not mention it but they will conserve graded coins under their warranty also. 1-800-447-8848

    Saints in old green holders have been known to upgrade on a regrade. image

    Regrade seems like a win-win.
