Professional Coin Grading Service () has announced it will expand the kinds of elongated coins it grades to include the numerous pieces cataloged in the authoritative catalog known as Yesterday’s Elongates. The 1981 book by Lee Martin and Dottie Dory has been updated three times over the years and lists hundreds of popular elongated coins, which are collectible pieces made from legal-tender coins that have been flattened in a machine and imprinted with a special logo or design.
