    Yes it does.

    Wait a minute! I really don't know but after looking at the Webpage which does state a 5 coin minimum for Economy and Modern that it does NOT apply.

    How about a post to the Q & A Forum?

    I decided to change calling the bathroom the John and renamed it the Jim. I feel so much better saying I went to the Jim this morning.

    Interesting that it no longer says it on the site. It does say it on the cover sheet for the submission forms I have on-hand.

    Do you have the latest forms Russ?

    The last ones I printed from online didn't show it.

    I've requested more forms from Customer Servce (more than 4 weeks ago) but have not received any yet.

  • Nope!

    I received forms on Thursday. forms effective January 8. 2007. Regular and Economy have 5 coin minimums. Mike
  • It used to say 5 coin minimum on regular submissions but it has changed in the past few days. It says prices effective 9-20-07

    this is probably a question that should be posed at the Q&A Forum or called directly to customer service. it's either an oversight or no longer a requirement with the Regular submission.

    The website has newer information than the forms do. To me, the website takes precedence.

    Edited to add: Keet's has a good idea and you can PM Carol also.

    I called customer service about this on friday and the guy said it should still apply. I then got him to go to the web page where it no longer says there is a minimum. He said take advantage of it while you can.

    For months and months I have been sending in fewer than 5 coins at a time in both Economy and Regular. PCGS dropped the minimum requirement when it began imposing the $5/order processing charge (as a tactic to prevent small orders).
    When in doubt, don't.

    Unless I'm reading the new chart wrong which shows that the new prices are effective September 20, 2007 it shows no minumum on Regular service but still shows 5 coin minimum on Economy and Modern.

    Maybe the new $5 Handling Fee per submission was instituted to allow for smaller submission numbers.
