When was your first PCGS submission and how were your results?

In 2003 I submitted 5 CC Morgan's and 3 CC assorted gold. The result were 3 of the 5 Morgan's bb'd due to cleaning and the 3 gold slabbing with grades in the 53-58 range. A little disappointing but quite a learning experience.

When I approached the PCGS authorized dealer with my mini-hoard he, at first, refused to allow me to send them in. He didn't understand the logic of spending $30. per coin (PCGS didn't really offer too many various tiers back then!) and it took some pleading on my part for him to do so.
They came back, many, many weeks later, one making MS66 with most MS65 and one or two MS64's.
It was a fun and interesting time back then as really Teletrade was kind of the market maker for these earlier slabs, so to speak.

And, my 2nd submission.....these were all pulled from a partial set that I bought from my local dealer. The 1914 more than made up for the cost of the set.

All common dates but I was generally pleased. I still can't figure out why the 1878 s was bagged for cleaning. I've shown it do dozens of collectors and dealers and they can't spot the cleaning either.

Still have the '16,'17,'25. The '25 is not recognized by PCGS but, is the only attributed 1925 DDO yet to date. (although minor)
Quarterly freebee too.
They aren't the best and I've since learned a couple of "numismatic" terms and hardly none of the proper etiquette (Sorry God)... But I still try.

This was my very first post.
As you can see, not much has changed on the forums as, I was whining about the quality of the coins in the 2001 Kennedy Rolls from the Mint!

All purchased raw...starting to slab regularly now to see how I have done.
1877 Cent received a XF-45... I expected a XF-40. VERY HAPPY!!
1878-cc Morgan received a MS-63. I agree with grade but wanted a PL, guess I need to see more PL coins...
1914-d Lincoln received a VF-30, a good grade but I thought it was a 35.
1909-s Lincoln received a MS-64RD, exactly what I thought.
1909-s VDB Lincoln received a MS-64RB a point better than I thought. Extremely happy!
1937-d 3 Leg Buffalo received a AU-55...I thought it was a 58 for sure. This is the only coin I believe may have been graded 'tight'... but that's the way the ball bounces.

1889 gold dollar (my avatar) bought raw on eBay in 2005 for low AU money -> PCGS MS 65
1898-S double eagle bought raw on eBay in 2005 @ spot + 10% -> PCGS MS 62
1924 st. gaudens bought raw on eBay in 2005 @ spot + 15% -> bodybagged as "cleaned"
Honestly, I'll have to dig that coin out of the SDB sometime.
