Quarterly Submissions ?

mheffner2 · December 26, 2007 2:24PM

With 1/1 in a couple days when does PCGS usually announce the quarterly 'freebie' submission? I saw it's seated for 4q07, curious if 1q08 is in the know yet.

mheffner2 · December 27, 2007 7:39AM

Bad question?

fcloud · December 27, 2007 7:44AM

Too soon. They wait until after the quarter starts.

sweetwilliet · December 27, 2007 7:44AM

We usually find out a week or two into the next quarter. No, not a bad question, just probably won't know the answer for a few weeks.

mheffner2 · December 27, 2007 7:47AM

Thanks! Just finally joined n was curious.

TCoins · January 2, 2008 3:39AM

When?

Barndog · January 2, 2008 3:49AM

patience, patience. Let them finish the first cup of coffee, at the very least.

mheffner2 · January 2, 2008 4:01AM

Coffee is for closers! HAHA Oh they closed me, have a second cup.

Coxe · January 2, 2008 4:21AM

I missed the last one. I knew there was a another reason I wanted to send the big box out before New Years.

Dang It! Me too!

Boom · January 2, 2008 6:25PM

I don't recall sending in one quarterly submission this past year. I didn't have a single coin that was fit the bill.

Manorcourtman · January 10, 2008 2:15AM

Well anyone heard anything yet?????

SportsModerator2 · January 10, 2008 2:55AM

I've got the next special.

I've requested it get on the website under specials as soon as possible.
The order must be post marked by March 31st. The normal rules apply. This is for Collectors Club members only, the coin must be on its own submission form with its own return shipping. Only one per quarter.

Again, for all the details please check the website when it has been updated.

**************************************************************

In 1980, the price of gold hit a record high of $850 an ounce. As of this writing (27 years later), gold has reached a new peak once again. To celebrate this event, PCGS will accept any gold coin (U.S. or world) for this quarter's PCGS Collectors Club Submission Special.

Send in your gold coin today to take advantage of this great benefit for Collectors Club members!

SeaEagleCoins · January 10, 2008 3:10AM

Coxe · January 10, 2008 3:21AM

<< My page says last quarter's. What is this quarters????thx >>

Carol said it was a US or world gold coin. She also said the website update was still in progress. I suppose it will be limited to a value of $3K or something like that.

pauljuno · January 10, 2008 3:28AM

Super! As I was planning on buying the ms/pf gold eagles coming out soon!

Bochiman · January 10, 2008 3:33AM

rbalderman1 · January 10, 2008 3:36AM

WOW!!!! Thanks Carol, excellent pic. Now I just need to pay $10 for First Strike. This is the best 1 yet. Thanks

TwoSides2aCoin · January 10, 2008 3:41AM

Well, this is nice

Coinlearner · January 10, 2008 3:42AM

Nice choice, now alot of people with be able to take advantage of the special and likely get some new members joining up. Looked at the "old" special and understand must include return post cost but did not see anything about that $5.00 service charge. Is that waved on this offer

I think the $5 fee is waived for free services like the quarterly special and annual voucher submissions. Not sure, but I seem to recall also for reholder service. Haven't used that one though.

pmac · January 10, 2008 5:08AM

Any gold coin.

BECOKA · January 10, 2008 6:24AM

If it's any gold coin then I can finally cross this guy.

Coxe · January 10, 2008 7:48AM

Nice coin, but not sure of that rim dent at 11:00 on the reverse.

rbalderman1 · January 10, 2008 8:07AM

I pretty sure it is any gold coin valued at $3000 or less.

BECOKA · January 10, 2008 8:08AM

<< Nice coin, but not sure of that rim dent at 11:00 on the reverse. >>

Thats why I would try the freebie.

It's not as bad as it looks in the photo. Its only near the top so not sure if PCGS would consider it a rim ding.

The size of the image makes it look worse. Looks like a pass to me but is one of those cases where it all depends on who looks and their mood I bet.

ozzyfan269 · January 10, 2008 9:08AM

Awesome! This is great news!

Animalkeeper · January 10, 2008 10:59AM

Cool!

I've got a 1912 Canadian eagle and a half eagle that I didn't want to pay World Gold prices on! I'll have to figure out which is better to submit first.

Any thoughts?

Edited: grammar crap!

LickThoseStamps · January 10, 2008 11:13AM

Link to Quarterly Special

robkool · January 10, 2008 2:28PM

I'm still trying to decide what is better to submit...

An 1875 s $20 Lib XF45
An 1882H $2 Newfoundland AU58
An 1870 s $2 1/2 Lib VF20
Or crossover the 1900 $20 Lib NGC MS62

Ray261 · January 11, 2008 12:56AM

Being new to the board, could someone explain this to me. Thank you

commeman · January 11, 2008 1:06AM

Does anyone know if this special includes American Eagle and/or Buffalo proofs?

BECOKA · January 11, 2008 2:39AM

<< Does anyone know if this special includes American Eagle and/or Buffalo proofs? >>

Yes, any gold coin produced by an official government mint from any country.

Mitsuecl3338 · January 11, 2008 4:42AM

Every quarter PCGS offers grading specials to its "members" You must be a member to take advantage of the free quarterly specials.

Im sending in my 1/2 Burnished AGE

ModernCrapNut · January 11, 2008 5:33AM

Just my luck. Only 2 gold coins and they are both PCGS slabbed already.

Coinlearner · January 11, 2008 6:13AM

Had a unopened non-FS spouse, that noone wanted on ebay, laying around, so I opened it. May get a few dollars more if a 70.........Then maybe someone/somewhere will have a home for it

ModernCrapNut · January 11, 2008 7:02AM

<< Being new to the board, could someone explain this to me. Thank you >>

Welcome to the boards.

In addition to the free submissions given at different levels of membership, once each quarter of the calender, PCGS will have a submission special for all members....silver, gold or platinum.

pcgs69 · January 11, 2008 1:49PM

Will PCGS accept Crossovers for this?

Also, guidelines state to mark "CC Special" on package... say I have two submission forms enclosed in the package... one for the CC Special and one for another service... do I still mark "CC Special" on there? Or should I send two packages?

I also read a few things about the value limit on the coin... where is that stated by PCGS?

pcgs69 · January 13, 2008 2:20AM

I guess my questions cannot be answered??

Quarterly Submissions ?
