This forum is for the discussion of USA coin and paper money collecting that is unrelated to saving bulk Copper Bullion Penny, Nickel & CuNi Bullion Nickel, or Silver Coins for metal content. Feel free to post scheduled coins shows.

You folks have got to see this one. It is leading edge technology from the folks at PCGS. Here’s an idea, sell your “mechanical dog in a box” and use the proceeds to buy a box of cotton gloves and stop finger-banging our coins.

I send in a 1969-s DDO to PCGS for the Secure Plus service and grading and here's what I got back.
Just having some fun.

No, it's not wild if you've been buying coins and getting ripped off by coin doctors. HOwever, you're definitely right, members have been getting banned left and right and/or messages deleted on the PCGS forums for the outrage over not using gloves.

Geez! Got enough barking in the house with the beagle playing tag with my kids! Not in the market for another noise maker. Can let the beagle sniff out any coins I get, however may end up with quite a bit of nose grease.
