<p>[QUOTE=&quot;becky62, post: 480248, member: 15105&quot;]Found this on another forum, from Don Willis, President of PCGS:</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><font face="Arial"><font size="1">Due to popular demand we are making a couple changes to our Genuine program. In addition to the previous no grade codes we will now holder &#039;Holed &amp; Plugged&#039;, and &#039;Rim Filed&#039; coins. Since both of these impairments can be very difficult to recognize we will print the no grade reason on the front of the insert (only for these two no grades). We are also creating a new no grade code for &#039;Peeling Lamination&#039;. These will not be holdered as we consider them to be active. Also, note that &#039;Holed&#039; coins will be holdered as code 98 - damaged. </font></font></p><p><font face="Arial"><font size="1"><br /></font></font></p><p><font face="Arial"><font size="1">Here is a recap of our no grade codes, print status as well as holder status.</font></font></p><p><font face="Arial"><font size="1"><br /></font></font></p><p><font face="Arial"><font size="1">Code/ Description / Printed Description / Holder</font></font></p><p><font face="Arial"><font size="1"><br /></font></font></p><p><font face="Arial"><font size="1">82 Filed Rims / Yes / Yes</font></font></p><p><font face="Arial"><font size="1">83 Peeling Lamination / No / No</font></font></p><p><font face="Arial"><font size="1">84 Holed and Plugged / Yes / Yes</font></font></p><p><font face="Arial"><font size="1">90 Not Genuine / No / No</font></font></p><p><font face="Arial"><font size="1">91 Questionable Color / No / Yes</font></font></p><p><font face="Arial"><font size="1">92 Cleaned / No / Yes</font></font></p><p><font face="Arial"><font size="1">93 Planchet Flaw / No / Yes</font></font></p><p><font face="Arial"><font size="1">94 Altered Surface / No / Yes</font></font></p><p><font face="Arial"><font size="1">95 Scratch or Rim Nick / No / Yes</font></font></p><p><font face="Arial"><font size="1">97 Environmental Damage / No / Yes</font></font></p><p><font face="Arial"><font size="1">98 Damage or Tooling / No / Yes</font></font></p><p><font face="Arial"><font size="1">99 PVC Residue / No / No</font></font></p><p><font face="Arial"><font size="1"><br /></font></font></p><p><font face="Arial"><font size="1"><br /></font></font></p><p><font face="Arial"><font size="1">btw - I&#039;ve seen a few posts wondering what code 80 means. That was the code used for the old Genuine program. We are no longer holdering coins as code 80.</font></font></p><p><br /></p><p><font face="Arial"><font size="1">Linky: <a href="http://forums.collectors.com/messageview.cfm?catid=26&amp;threadid=694032" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://forums.collectors.com/messageview.cfm?catid=26&amp;threadid=694032" rel="nofollow">http://forums.collectors.com/messageview.cfm?catid=26&amp;threadid=694032</a></font></font></p><p><br /></p><p><font face="Arial"><font size="1">I hope it&#039;s ok to post that, if not, I&#039;ll delete it.</font></font>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
