On the CGS web site , if you read about the slabbing process , it states a "reject" coin has the option of not being slabbed , I was not given this option I paid the higher rate to get my coin turned around in 30 days , should I note have been informed that they had changed this Anyway on with life , I have learned a lesson here , and I wish I had read all the comments on here about CGS first

I wish I had read this before I sent my crown to CGS. I have written a few emails to complain about the service I received, and did not get any reply I won't be using CGS again for any of my coins......

I,m sorry to say , but I think the reason for refusing my request to not slab my coin was to lower its value, and keep the number of EF Gothic crowns down , making the others more valuable !

From what I read on the internet , CGS are very strict on their grading (as I found out myself)

I had a few problems with CGS UK that I think I should point out 1. On the form coin submission form I selected a one month turn around time, little did I know that they changed this to three months without telling me 2. While on the phone to them after a month to ask where my coin was, I was spoken to very rudely by a foreign lady who would not answer any of my questions 3. When I received an email stating my coin had failed grading, and would be marked "Reject-re-toned" I called them again, and asked for my coin not to be slabbed. The response was its too late (1 day from receiving the email). If you read the grading process on their web site , it states I should have had the option to not have my coin slabbed. The only reason the coin was sent to them was to confirm it was not a fake. I think the coin looks great (I don,t know about re-toning) and will be keeping the coin because I like the way it looks
