Another Submission Question.

I've sent many coins to PCGS for grading, but have never had them photographed before. Do they photograph them before grading or after?

They are photographed before being sealed in the slab. Which is after grading.
I recommend Trueview. They've done an excellent job imaging my coins.
I just got a note that my submission was being imaged. whoopee.

Trueview adds value to the coin. It is a must for high grade coins.
According to PCGS's photographer Phil Arnold, "Imaging can come before or after grading depending on the flow of product, but typically it occurs before the coins are graded. Crossovers of course happen after grading."
