I submitted several coins for the first time to PCGS. I didn't request or pay for the images. However, one of them is being imaged while others have skipped this step. Any idea why this could happen? I'm hoping it's because it will be a low population high MS coin. Thoughts?

Prior to submitting we all take a guess on the grade it "should" rec'v...
What was your guess on the 1894?

I'm honestly hoping for a 67 or better. I bought it at an antique store 10 years ago and under even under a scope I see no imperfections. It's my favorite coin in my collection.

It looks better than the one pictured at 66 on PCGS. Although more brown.

PCGS may have took a photo to use in their Coinfacts. I agree the current 1894 MS66 Coinfacts photo does not do much for the coin. The date shows 1 in the pop report at MS66. If the coin graded MS66, that would be an excellent score.

Totally confused by this thread. Will the OP simply show an image of the original 1894 submitted for grading.

I've not heard of PCGS randomly deciding to image a coin so my first thought was a data entry error. I also have not heard of PCGS randomly taking images. I do own one coin in the coinfacts photos, but I did not submit the coin for grading. |

Did you photograph the 1894 before sending it in? Is so, please share the photos so we can see what you have.

Sorry no photos. I 4ead they might image a coin worth over $500. I'm wildly optimistic at this point. I will update you all.

Why is everyone worked up about photos? If you want to see coins, go to the grading section!
Call PCGS, they are usually quick to help. If you call at a busy time, you may have to wait a while or have them call you back. Good luck!

I don't know what was I thinking, asking to see a photo of a coin that's being discussed on a site dedicated to coins.  |
