The cost of TrueView is a $5 flat rate per coin. To order, simply check the TrueView box on the PCGS Standard or Restoration submission form on the line of the coin you would like photographed.
Remember, TrueView Photography is included at no additional cost on all PCGS Gold Shield™ Submissions submitted to the PCGS U.S. office.
Your order is sent via email. You will receive one email for each coin you submit for TrueView photography and that email will contain a link to the coin's images on the PCGS website.
The image page displays your coin in various sizes, backgrounds and formats:
Sizes: | 2280x1140 (Large), 6000x3000 (Max), 5757x2905 (Max on white or transparent background), and 2905x2905 (Max Obverse or Reverse on white background) |
Backgrounds: | TrueView watermark, white, and transparent |
Formats: | JPG and PNG |
Example: | https://images.pcgs.com/trueview/29402446 |
If your submission order features grading (Standard, Secure, Crossover, etc.), then the email will be sent out once the coin has shipped.
If the order is a simple reholder, then you will get the email soon after the coin is photographed.
Photography can take place at any point in the grading process but always before the coin is encapsulated to ensure absolute clarity in the photography process.
Note that PCGS retains the image rights to the coin and may use the imagery as we see fit. That said, you are free to use the TrueView images however you like. This may include online sales or Set Registry listings, personal photo albums, or the creation of wall art or other décor that feature your coins.
