Well, I'd like to report that I saw a Palmetto bug (a large FL roach) in our new building today where they a building an elevator shaft.

I'm looking forward to joining the other three recipients of that badge. :)

    I would not be surprised if someone made these "badges" into a makeshift sash to wear at coin shows...like The Boy and Girl Scouts, Banditos, Chewbacca, etc...

    Great idea! Then when CU members have informal meetings in the future at big shows...

    I predict that in the future, this function will be sponsored by PCGS. All that would be needed is to pay for the room at the convention center of hotel. It would have a cash bar so that wouldn't cost them much extra.

    Actually I reported that strange pop-up bug issue. Where's my badge? :(

    Maybe because I only started a thread on it.

    I would guess that a problem/glitch/bug in the PCGS system is reported to the proper office of responsibility (entomology, bugologist, herpetologist, etc...).

    Or perhaps report to Dale's Dead Bug.

    Already on it, starting with small stickers and for a fee you send me your coins and if I like them I put a Nice New No Bugs Sticker on your slab. T-shirts are next. Man I love Retirement...………….

    @ricko If you find a bug with any of the links or any other problems with any of PCGS websites and report it you can get the bug badge. While searching for coins to add to my set registry I noticed instead of 100 examples offered there were now only 3 and this went on for all my coins in the set. It was broke for 3 days and finally got ahold of the right person and they fixed it.

    Enjoy Tom

    If a picture wasn't going very well I'd put a puppy dog in it, always a mongrel, you know, never one of the full bred puppies. And then I'd put a bandage on its foot... I liked it when I did it, but now I'm sick of it.

    When we lived in Seffner, Florida (near Tampa) we had a big long haired German Shepard that we rescued and he was sure that his one reason for living was to protect my wife. He was fearless... except for palmetto bugs. One could keep him off his food dish.
