After a rather lengthy (for me) follow-up message to PCGS, to the general email address hoping to get someone other than the guy that I have been dealing with, I get the following message yesterday;
"Good Afternoon John,
Thank you for contacting PCGS Customer Service.
After viewing this order, it appears that it has taken a bit too long, so I will notify our grading room manager to expedite this order. You should be receiving an email specifying your grades very shortly.
If you have further questions or concerns, please contact PCGS Customer Service by email:"
The same guy, same "canned" message with no substance.
Another week in captivity, my coins are probably propping a door open to the break room.

Well to be fair - FUN, Long Beach submissions, all the X-Mas gifts being sent in, end of year tax time money must be spent by dealers. I'd guess Oct-March is the busiest time for them.

Those are some pretty coins ;-) The only ones I see that may be an issue with PCGS, would be your classic copper. It's hard to tell from your photo but your DBLC may get a code 97 for environmental damage. They are especially tough on anything questionable such as originality of the surfaces. The only one that concerns me is the DBLC. Keep us posted!

Yeah, photobucket frustrates the heck out of me at times.

Well, it's a little disappointing that they took so long. But your collection looks quite amazing!

Quote: if any don't cross will you sell the coin in the ANACS slab and purchase coins already graded by PCGS and NGC since you are putting together a PCGS/NGC 7070 set?
Seems like this situation has come up to the surface.

Glad to hear the coins are finally making their way back to you. They took much too long. You should have gotten a few upgrades just to make up for it.

Why would they not cross?
