PCGS has graded 210,600 clad Proof Quarters: 1968- 1998
Yet only three in PR70 for the complete twenty-year run. (Yes, many others in CAM and DCAM designation, but that's not the point.) This is the lone 1984-S PR70. 1984 was a particular year for me, as it was when I graduated college (BYU). I have been hunting high and low for this single example for the last 40 years, and… -
Specialists: Name a grade rarity pop that has not budged in recent years...
I bought 1950 (17/0) and 1951 (13/0) Jeffs in PR-68 two years ago and not one PR-68 has been made in either date since ... How about in your specialties? Such an exercise, particularly amid the exploding market and heavy submissions of recent years, helps illustrate, I think, the really scarce condition rarities. -

Has PCGS ever considered retaining the old crossover grade on the slab?

Being somewhat still new in the realm of card grading consideration, how has the process worked for you? Your comments will help me in my decision on how far into submitting my cards I will go.

Has anyone received free vouchers for their submission not being graded on time?
Just wondering. I have a large modern bulk order that is due by the end of next week. The last two times, the grades were ready on the 44th and 45th day respectively. After waiting this long, I'd love to get 140 free vouchers Regards, Greg M. -
Has PCGS,NGC or ANACS ever confiscated a coin that was sent in to be graded?
Say someone submited a 1964 Peace dollar , a 1974 alluminum Lincoln cent , 1933 $20 saint or something else unauthorized by the US goverment. Has PCGS, NGC or ANACS ever confiscated a coin for any reason? -
As much of the air has come out of the MS/PR 70 grade...
.....what can be done to value add to modern coins? As the 70 premium diminishes on silver eagles for example, the reward for the dealer network is certainly tanking. Time for a 70+ ?
