He was very proud of his accomplishment and said if he included more than one in a submission they would get BB'd. But if there was only one, then he'd get a PR68DCAM.
He spent tens of thousands of dollars for a complete set of golden toned moderns and thought he had fooled PCGS into grading them.
It turned out, the joke was on him.

There was a guy here about 10 years ago that heated up a complete modern commemorative set and submitted them to PCGS.

PCGS rejected all of them?

I honestly think he used a frying pan, if memory serves me correctly. Each was a golden- some more attractive than others (almost as if some had been gold plated).
I don't recall how he sent them in, but I am sure you're right: no way he could have done more than just a few- if that- at a time, mixing his submission with other coins, I believe.
Didn't he also feature them in a Registry?
I do remember being intrigued and a bit impressed with his slight gloating on "pulling one over on PCGS".
Any speculation on where those coins are now?

Regrettably, I think the thread was nuked at some point.
Yes, I do believe he did a registry set for them as well.
I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment

Skillet Set?
Xtra Crispy?
Rangetop Royalty?

I suspect the toning looks better than those images show.
