Another terrible PCGS submission

I agree with the grade on the seated half tho it could've been 53 the quarter is beautiful but questionsble as ma I see hairline in the reverse of the v nickel. The 2 cent I see absolutely no problems as with the Kennedy the shield looks ok to me too

Sorry about the shotty luck. Those coins are stunners.

 

From your pictures of the 1964-D Kennedy, I really can’t see anything that keeps it out of a PCGS MS67 holder. Try sending that puppy in again.

The only thing I would do different – would pick up a few more modern Kennedys to be graded. I know PCGS says the cut off point for Modern versus Economy is 1965 but in my experience if you have 4 or 5 modern Kennedys on the submission form and you throw one 1964 dated coin in, PCGS will grade them all on the Modern tier. Earlier this spring, my dad found a 1964 DDO-015 and a 1964-D DDO-010 in a “junk silver” box a local B&M shop that we visit on a regular bases. We throw them both on a Modern submission at PCGS and they were graded each at the $16 level. https://www.pcgs.com/Membership/order.html?OrderNo=20792304&Year=2014

I do believe that the younger graders or graders just starting out do the “Modern” submission while the senior graders do the higher value tiers (just a thought).

 

I've talked to others too who have better luck running stuff at economy and declaring the value low you just can't insure it for as much

 

I just write on the submission form, that I want the most lenient grader handling my coins.

 

The SLQ definitely looks heat treated. I would bet money on it.

In response to:

I write to grade the coins after lunch on Friday.

 

If I were you, I wouldn't keep a measly MS-66 FS as my avatar.

I think the Kennedy Half surprised me the most.

 

1864 2 cents Damaged? I can't see not 1 thing to make that call. Pcgs grader must been blind or just didn't want to work Greg.

 

The only thing I see on the 2c is the cud that was mentioned and the denticles between the F in Of and the M in America.

 

Ya cud are not damage at most Tpg

 

Good one!

 

I want the grader who's hung over on Monday morning their likely to see double dies on all coins

 

Not only hung over but also forgot his eyeglasses

 

I just want a honest grading without a added fee.
Pcgs is the top service but do have stock holders they must answer to each quarter .
I know this shouldn't affect grading but everything rolls down hill. C.A.C rechecking everything today they are under the loop so to say.

 

I think these were bad calls all across the board. From my personal experience, I have had much better luck with toned coins and NGC. I know that most people extoll PCGS as being the pinnacle of TPGs, but I've honestly had much better experiences with NGC. I don't see the ones bagged as questionable as being AT. Just one person's opinion. I no longer submit to PCGS for that reason.

 

That's the grade I was expecting.

This was the first time I submitted with my own membership, so I'm still learning.

I used their online form submission. Is it even possible to do this using the online submission builder?

Also, would it be more beneficial if I submitted them through a dealer? Is there a difference between a dealer account and my account? Would the grader even know?

 

The case got thrown out of court.

 

Gee golly, I wonder why?

 

You can when it comes back 67. How's $1200 sound?
