My coin is moving through PCGS quickly. -- Saturday I mailed it. -- Monday it got to California. -- Tuesday PCGS picked it up. -- Wednesday it was in Processing. -- Today it's in Grading. Possible Reason: Insured for $1250
USPS has always been pretty quick for me in general, its typically UPS that takes forever with standard shipping!
Sometimes it's quick. My record for NGC was less than a week (arrival and grading) on a regular submission earlier this year. With PCGS, this might be the time when less items are sent in and they have caught up on the backlog from when they were closed.
In my experience with PCGS it has more to do with their current backlog. I've sent two nearly identical orders ~2 months apart and the turn around was about double for the former submission. Glad to hear your coin is cruising through! Fingers crossed for high grade!
