David (HRH): Thanks for sharing that great example of customer service with us forum members. It's great to know that PCGS backs up their coins with such a strong guarantee -- even if they degrade in their holder years after they were certified.
You and PCGS deserve alot of credit for this goodwill!!

That's going to pay you back 10 times in Goodwill and Integrity. PCGS is not only a market leader but a great corporate citizen and a company's who's business practices are beyond reproach. Thank You David!!!
PCGS sets under The Thomas Collections. Modern Commemoratives @ NGC under "One Coin at a Time". USMC Active 1966 thru 1970" The real War.
Heritage's description of that coin did not state it was perfect. They did say no "significant flaws." It could be said that a minor spot here or there is indeed not significant. Normally it isn't.....except this coin has a PF70 insert.
karl they know who it is and so do others. It was talked about at FUN last year and I have to tell you I wasn't surprised when I heard who had submitted it and that it had turned.

Great move David!! PCGS puts it's money behind it's grading, unlike the other grading companys.
Well done, that was the right thing to do. But I'm sure it will be in the minds of every grader when they are consider a proof lincoln for the lofty grade of 70. I doubt if we'll see ya put another oldie in a 70 holder for a while.
Mr. Hall, that was one stand-up, right thinking way to go. EXCELLENT! I think that speaks as loudly in the Public Relations arena as to the recent flap on this board about PCGS backing its guarantee as you will find. OUTSTANDING!!
