Great explanation allranger! Like you said, someone would have to go through a lot of trouble to place a fake out there. If the did... I'll have to hunt them down and have a talk! Haha!

...what other techniques they (TPGs) use to verify authenticity? You may find part of your answer here within this expose slanted toward grading which incorporates strike, surface alteration, eye appeal, and lighting w/r/t TPGs: http://www.coinmine.com/OnGradingCo...ingCoins.htm |

Still waiting. Any idea how long the PCGS "express" takes?

Just a suggestion... wont work this time around...but....You might want to make plans next year to take your best finds of 2015 to the FUN show and have them graded there and even see if you can get them labeled (like Pawn Stars did with the Peace dollar that was on the show) with your shows name and logo to create some buzz around your show and the coins you find on it....might be a brilliant marketing ploy |

You should hear back about grades within a week or so from receipt at PCGS, but they've been backed up lately.

I believe the OP mentioned that he sent it to GreatCollections. Ian is at the FUN show so he may have already submitted it or is walking it through PCGS at the show.
