How do you package slabs for regrade/crossover?

Stupid · January 27, 2009 10:08AM

I have some free submissions, and am going to send some coins to PCGS in the slabs for regrade/crossover.

I see that you have to use the 2.5x2.5 flips for raw coins, but I don't know what to use for slabs. How am I

supposed to package these up?

Thanks

I just put a sticker on the slab with the submission and line number.

Yup, what he said.

I've never put a sticker on the slabs, only the flips.

I can tell you that wrapping them with a $20 bill doesn't work, it never reaches the hands of the graders.

I have a dealer-friend, someone who is very well respected in the early copper circle, who feels it important to "order" the coins in his submission. Like there's a certain psychology at work, such that you allow the grader to get pissy and sour about the first few coins in the hopper. And then you hit him with the jewel...the one you really want the best possible grade. The grader's already beaten you up on the first handful of coins and maybe he's chilled a little.

All this sounds like voo-doo submission to me. But my dealer-friend swears by it and has some remarkable stories to tell.

Maybe this is a little OT. But no kidding, every time I send in a lot of coins I stop and think too hard about how to set them up. Gives me a headache.

A Franklin works wonders
