I've never seen this Webpage ever.

TrueView

I knew it had to exist somewhere in the PCGS system.

Why doesn't PCGS have a link to it on their homepage?

Anyone else share my views????

The only reason I found it was because I got my first ever CBH TrueViewed.

I love it....check out the high rez pic of my 1824 lady with her scattering of gold, peach, and crimson iridescence.

You can see here even larger than life here(click on her to enlarge).........TrueView Link to my CBH

Guess you don't need to pay the small fee for a CD, since the "large" version is on the PCGS server for your download.

For those that do not know the process and would like to see monster TrueView pics, input the following:

Hope this helps others on the forum. image

    Thanks for sharing this info. People in customer service has continued to tell me that this service does not exist anymore. Probably only for the special few???

    I tried using it a few months ago. They billed me for it and they never took the pics. I just got the coins back graded and that was it.

    Good to see it's still there when they honor it.

    Nice coin. image

    I still get them with every submission. It was a great service until they started charging $10 per coin. I dont think they like doing them any more and the service will soon be done.

    I'm glad they added this info. Is it on the newest submission forms yet? $10 is still a great value IMO.
