<p>[QUOTE=&quot;kidkayt, post: 895008, member: 7275&quot;]I have less of a fear of the postal system than I do of PCGS themselves.&nbsp; I usually send even valuable coins by priority mail with delivery confirmation.&nbsp; Not lost a single one yet over the last 20+ years.&nbsp; This is another hype generator for making quick $ off collectors.&nbsp; IMHO every little &quot;service&quot; actually cuts into the value of the coin itself.&nbsp; I have yet to have a coin stolen from my possession after living in various places across the country from apartments to homes.&nbsp; No one know what you have till you boast about it.&nbsp; And to conclude my thesis I had sent some valuable gold commems to PCGS for grading and they came back covered with enamel.&nbsp; When I complained to PCGS they simply put the coins in an ultrasonic cleaner and harshly cleaned off the enamel while scoring the fields with particulates in the cleaning solvent.&nbsp; Oh! and when I complained about this they responded that their grades were &quot;guaranteed.&quot;&nbsp; My response: The original mint surfaces of the coins are NOT any more! They are idiots in my opinion.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
