    @lonn47.... Welcome aboard.... You have not given enough information for the members to help you. Information such as condition, dates, rolls or envelopes and pictures would help. Cheers, RickO

    The fact they've been wrapped for 25 years doesn't mean anything. Grading coins can get very expensive and if you grade the "wrong" coins it can really cost you.

    Post some sharp photos here, then listen to what members have to say.

    "Authentication and Grading" a coin will cost about $25 each for postage and fees. You coin has to be worth at least twice that, AND be immediately saleable, for 'grading' to be worthwhile.

    Send a check for about $18k , along with the coins, to PCGS with instructions that you want them graded. After that, send them to Great Collections. Voila, no fuss-no mess.

    Why bother sending the coins to PCGS??? Great Collections will slab them with PCGS and take the fees out of the settlement check. No need to spend any money!!!

    Welcome to the forums @lonn47.

    Please drop the caps. That is considered “yelling.”

    Please post pics of your coins. So we can see if they are worth something.

    It cost about $50 to grade one (1) coin.

    Wow...where do you get your coins graded? You need to consider Economy. ;)

    $16 + $22 + $10

    Okay off about $2. But I did say “about.” Now what service level do you use get it cheaper for one coin? We’d all like to be on that deal. (Not including bulk.)

    And economy’s more than $50 for one coin but still “about.” $22 + $22 + $10.

    wrapped up? Like in rolls from when they came from a bank in 1994? Coinstar might be the way to go.

    Yup Coinster sure help in sorting out the issue..

    Sure if you send one coin by itself. Who does that.? $32 of that is not the fee.

    I did not mention fee. I mentioned cost. I typed, “It cost about $50 to grade one (1) coin.”

  • DIMEMANDIMEMAN Posts: 22,403 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Sorry.....I misunderstood your statement. When you said 50 for one coin …… I took it as 50 per coin. I usually send 10 in at a time. That spreads the $10 fee to a buck on each coin and about 2 bucks on each for shipping.
