    It is too bad that you can only do one coin at a time....really not saving you much money if you want to certify several coins. It would be better if you sent in a bunch and one was free.

        I joined PCGS membership back in October but never sent any in yet.

        I thought i would have more to send than i do by this time.

        Am i reading this right - PCGS grades any single Lincoln coin for no cost but they will send this single coin back in its own box (registered mail) and split up the group of coins that you send in ?

        I know that NGC/NCS does this - You can send them in together but they split up your return orders into 2 registered boxes

          You got it.
          The coin needs its own form, and will be returned separately. So if you send in a crossover, a variety, an error, and a free Lincoln...they can all go in the same box when you send them in...but you need to fill out 4 different forms...and you will need to pay for 4 different return shipping charges. PCGS does not like to mix things.

            I am dropping off 5 coins at the PCGS booth at the Chicago Coin Show tomorrow. They are all crossovers. This will save me some $ on shipping.

              Thanks Brad

              i always wish that NGC and PCGS would coordinate orders went sent in and maybe mix-n-match different types of tiers.

                That would be nice and you would think it would not be that dificult for them to do so

                They must see a need to keep coins from different tiers levels seperated from one anther..

                  I was at a coin show today that PCGS attended. I submitted a free lincoln...the price was $17.50 for the return shipping. I also submitted a separate crossover with 5 coins. It saved me about $5.

                    Yes that $17.50 figure comes up alot. Post Office is making as much as dough as PCGS.
