I get a box from PCGS today. It's a triple, that confused me because the last order was 27 coins. Well I sent in 27 Canada coins and 10 of them were in a plastic holder (like a US mint set). PCGS returned the plastic holders! They have NEVER done that before! Very cool!!!
It is not exactly cheating, I prefer to consider it creative problem solving!!!

    Marty:

    I'm lost trying to picture what's going on. Can you post a scan?
    When in doubt, don't.

    They probably just had a rate increase from their garbage service.

    Russ, just because you don't like Canadian coins, doesn't mean you should be denigrating Marty's coins image

    I sent two proof sets to PCGS in the snap plastic holder from the Canadian mint. PCGS returned the holder to me.

    Russ swore me to secrecy, but he bought a Canada PL set!!!

    There's nothing wrong with having a few Canadians.
    They produce better quality coins than the U.S. IMO.
