It is generally considered rude to jump into someone else's thread with unrelated content, in the future you should start your own new thread. Yes you can advertise coins for sale but that needs to be done in the BST (buy, sell, trade) section of the forum. You can access that section by selecting it from the list on the right side of the screen.

However, unless your coins are graded and at least MS66 (really MS67) or higher the value of each coin is just one cent, it will cost you more to ship one or even all of them, than the coin(s) are worth.

Re: Submitting Coins During The Holiday Season

The $10 if it doesn't cross deal at CACG ends in a week. I had to submit during the Holiday's. Hopefully the Grinch doesn't grade the coins though.

The weird narrative about the Tennessee play calling is so bizarre. Just insane.

here let me give you a translation: hell will freeze over before i'll admit that an SEC school had no business being in the playoffs, so where can i turn............where can i turn...........where can i turn.............damnit where can i turn.............i've got it!...........they actually deserved to be there, the play calling just sucked

you can't put a price tag on that type of amusement

Re: Is premium silver worth the extra money?

Premium silver - Fabricated collector items. Bullion is not considered premium silver.

Silver premium - the price over spot that one pays for any silver item.

All silver item prices are based on current spot price plus the premium added by the seller or the market.

Not that I am defending this seller at all, but this and every coin board are full of posts about how the TPG got it wrong. Good bad or otherwise.
It does feel a bit misleading, but I’m sure many here in this thread have cracked out coins to regrade at one time or another. This particular coin probably isn't worth the cost to grade again.

Re: PSA Specials

coughs up dust
When I was actively sending cards to PSA it was about $6 per card - with a turnaround of 45-60 days. And at that time, their graders generally adhered to the standards PSA published on their website.

Fast forward 20 years later, PSA is charging $18/card. . .orders take 6 months to pop. . .and the same standards from 20 years ago remain on PSA’s website, but are so far removed from what comes out of the grading room as to be meaningless.

So when I got back to the hobby this year and decided to build sets from 74-84, raw was the only way that made sense to me - knowing many HOFers I’d have to pick up graded.

I’ll go back to yelling at a cloud now.
