Just read the annual report. PCGS anticipates frading 1,241,000 coin in 2004. At that rate, the 20-millionth coin will be graded in about 8 years - 2012. Took 18 years for the first 10-mil.

What do you want to bet it will be a classic rarity.....image

Other interesting volume stats for 2004:

Sportscards - 998,000
Autographs - 68,000
Stamps - 16,000

    I will estimate a slight slowing down in the last 5 of those years and say 7 years 4 months!

    It probably growing exponentially. If it keeps that growth up they will consume all of the plastic in the world in a few years and grade every coin ever made.

    The stamps grading division doesn't seem to be exactly setting the world on fire.

    Yeah, PCGS will get to the coins before they leave mint and you'll be spending slabs by 2012. image

    No worries, if there's ever a plastic shortage I'll just turn in all the plastic from my crackouts image
