    Maybe they figured out Milk Spots on ASEs and got the reward money.

    Maybe they bought the rights to the Michigan Masters "edge prism" holder insert... I have to admit they are pretty cool.

    PCGS is now going to have their graders working directly with the US Mint so that all collector mint products are graded before they leave the Mint :vanish:

    I know what it is and I've said it before here on CoinTalk!

    They are going to start slabbing slabs!!! That's right now, (for a modest fee, plus shipping, Ins. tax and the submission tier you choose) can now have all of your PCGS slabs entombed twice and , (for an additonal fee) have your PCGS plastic graded! That's right folks, you now can have that PCGS plastic case graded on a sliding scale from crappy to mirror finish. The grading number will be called CRAP-60 to MIRFIN-70. Buffed or treated plastic will of course be slabed only as geniune PCGS plastic case or GPCGSPLCA.
    There will be first come first serve type label numbering sytem also. The first 1000 people to elect to pay for this and arrive at our doors will have the abreviation added (at a small $10 extra fee), as Sucker #0001 and so on to Sucker #1000 - that is until we figure out anther way to help relieve you of more money with additional fees. You also can purchase from us, (because now they won't fit in our other box) hard plastic oversized storage boxes for your slabs in a slab.
    We are very excitied about this new service and I'm sure you will be to.
    Isn't it time to stop wondering whether your plastic is genuine? Or if you plastic is in a perfect state of preservation? Now all of your problems are solved!

    The new service shall be called, "The PCGS Doubled Slabbed, Plastic Preservation Protection Program for Existing PCGS Slabbed Coins"! Or "PCGSDBLEDSLBPLSPRERPROTECPRGMEXTSLABCOINS" for a short and easily remembered servce ensuring you "the finest, graded, oversized and the "first" slab in a slab program for the deserning collector"!!!

    Have fun as I did with this and remember, "you heard it here first on CoinTalk!!!!!

    They will now begin slabbing the collectors themselves instead of bodies being buried in traditional coffins, and there will be built in storage racks for your slabbed coins. :rolling:

    They are returning to putting precious coins in cereal boxes again?

    Slabbed slabs to slobber over?

    I just assumed they were following in Toyota's footsteps and conducting a major re-call on all their slabbed coins for re-evaluation.

    Are they are going to start selling self slabber kits like the old heath-kits? This would certainly save you the cost and risk of shipping the valuable coins back & forth.

    U.S. Mail service may start slabbing the shipping boxes which the slabbed slabs are shipped in to make sure that they are not opened inadvertently, for a small fee ofcourse......
