My recent 5-Coin Crossover Submission was returned in a very nice looking black PCGS coin box. Guess it was appropriate they came back in a black box since all five coins DNC'd. I thought it was a nice touch. ;)

I'm thinking my eye is not as good as it once was... :(

    Yesterday I purchased some supplies with PCGS and saw they are selling these black plastic boxes. Kind of neat (so I purchased one).

    Just ordered two boxes.....it will be interesting to see what color they come in. Shipping cost more than the box, so that's why I ordered two LOL.

    I like the black ones much more than the blue. I've never had a green box.

    My 2019 four free submissions came back in a black box. Did not know it was something special, I just like getting the box itself to put other pcgs graded coins in. This was a few months ago I think.

    The black box looks good with the gold lettering.... I prefer the green boxes though, especially since I have quite a few of them ;) ....Also, green is my favorite color....Cheers, RickO

    Original black boxes for rattlers were cool.

    Ok, here's a few of the ones attempting cross at MS67+ grade:

    1954-S

    1949-S

    Yup, love the 54-S - agreed it's a beut!

    surprised it didn't cross .

    Perhaps the reverse lettering being so weakly struck is what keeps it out of PCGS plastic? Regardless, such a pretty coin, along with your 1949-S

    Not sure how these are packed though. NGC will not return coins in their plastic boxes.

    They will but you have to request and pay for it.

    I am not a fan of the new PCGS black boxes. They looks and feel cheap compared to the old green boxes or the blue boxes.

    I was told by NGC Customer Service they would not return ship coins in grey boxes and that I would have to pay separate shipping for them. I assume they won't ship coins in boxes due to possibility of damage.

    Those are two very pretty dimes, lablover. (BTW-I'm a Lab lover, too-Labs and Boston Terriers.)

    I just got my boxes today. They are black and look really cool!!

    They look very sturdy and well-made, too.

    I too just got two coins back that DNC. One even had a green bean. Very frustrating and disappointing.

    Prime reason why I won't play that game....
