CGS / PCGS - PARIS

[Colin88 54]

I have about 40 coins that I need graded....I asked CGS if the would give me discount for volume and they said "no"....so I thought I'd try the fairly newley opened for business PCGS in Paris.

Now, I am fully aware of the French's love of beaurocracy and long lunches and despite me having a 1st class honours degree in applied mathematics I could'nt get to grips with the submission form that was clearly designed by someone after a very long and very liquid Friday afternoon lunch in the sun.....so it will be back to CGS at some point.

• “CURRENT” – Requests the coin to cross at grade listed on holder (no higher than 69)

• “ANY” – Requests coins to cross at any numerical grade (01-69)

• “DETAILS” – Request Genuine with Details

I think you'll find CGS has a few misnomers in their submission process too, unless they've sorted that side of things out now? It took 2 calls, and an increase in fees to sort it all out, when I submitted 20 coins last year (without discount)!
