Hi all, I am an Australian looking for an American dealer to whom I can send my coins to get slabbed by PCGS. Does any one in the States know of dealers who might be comfortable doing that for me? Regards, Eric
Perhaps it's worthwhile to join and submit yourself. http://www.pcgs.com/join/index.chtml The paperwork is not too bad and access to the population reports online is a nice thing. I guess it depends on how many coins you plan on sending in and if your looking for the dealer to prescreen your submission. Joe
EDIT for poor spelling on a gorgous Sunday morning.
Eric, if you have found any excellent dealers, please do recommand one for me. I am in the process of looking for one but never decided because of the awful costs.
Is there a reason you only want to use PCGS? I know if you join the ANA (http://www.money.org/AM/Template.cfm?Section=Home) for $36 you can then submit coins to NGC for grading, based on their regular submission fees. If you join the Collector's Society for $99 (NGC) you get 5 free submissions and then you pay their regular submission fees. I don't know the volume you want to do, but the submission prices may vary depending on volume.
I would be intersted in knowing how well the PCGS slabs go there in Australia as well. In general what I have heard is that most collectors and dealers outside of the US really don't like the idea of slabbing. I know both of the certification services there in Australia have folded.
