As I speak, I'm sitting, waiting and anticipating all my coins to come back at least close to what I expect! This time, I'm expecting 4 separate deliveries. Three from our Host and one delivery from a dear friend. For all you guy's that know my normal routine when I submit coins, no, they're not all one coin submissions. Lol. All are multiple coin packages except one. Can't wait. You guy's know the feeling. First, of your coins making it safely during both routes. Then the grades. My biggest graded coin I'm hoping can turn out to be my BIGGEST reward in Cherry Picking! Were talking in the 4 figures. Wish me luck guy's. Thank you. :)

    Fortunately, there hasn't been that much going on this year and even economy submissions have been very fast. Good luck with your submissions.

    If you do what you always did, you get what you always got.

    Today, I got word from our Host that they received my last submission! Yippie. Knowing all my submissions (3) made it safely to PCGS, brings peace of mind. At least half way. ;)

    It is a relief when the order is marked "Received".

    The service process has its highs and lows; you order moves along a bit...stalls...moves a little bit...stalls...then momentum kicks and its out the door.

    Yes guys, my second submission has arrived. Most of you already know how I feel about this one. Not so exciting. Here it is;



    Two down (packages) two to go. Actually, 3 to go. I just submitted another one, (Walker "missing initials " variety crossover) Hope I can get more excited about the next 3, unlike the one I got today? Thanks guy's :/

    A new box for the 4 coins, (hic) I mean 5.
    My Dealer friend, Joe Ridzy (Lagrange Coins) gave this wonderful wooden box to me as a gift! Whata guy, huh? The only problem is there are to be 5 "Dad's Dollar" slabs to complete the set, not 4. Lol. Oh well, he knows this. He said, if my other sister did end up selling the coin, then it would be a 4 coin set, not 5. Which means, all I would need is one more, not two!





    Sorry, in our wedding picture, that's my father-in-law. Lol
    Here is my Dad, with Mom, next to us at my brother's wedding.

    Got word (grades) concerning Package #4. NOT GOOD! :'( ALL 4 Coins I submitted, were graded 1 grade lower than I wanted or without the FB designation. Yes, All coins are really worth less than my submission fee. One more grade or a FB designation, would have placed the coins in the $300-$400 range. Instead, the $15-$25 range. Urrrg. Oh well, learn from your mistakes, right? I think this outcome will keep me away from any submission forms for quite some time.
    One more package to receive in my original post that talks about "Anticipation." Now, my Anticipation has dropped to an all time low. :/

    Them's the breaks sometimes. We've all had our disappointments.

    Yeah, just got an email from our host concerning my last submission out of the 5 I originally sent. Yep, and once again BAD NEWS! :/ The variety I thought I sent in, wasn't a variety after all. The NGC Walker Half, I thought was a "Missing Initials", turned out not to be. So they asked If I still wanted to cross it over, I said, Yes. What the heck. It was a ms 64 NGC, it will probably come back a ms 63? But then again, the way things have been going for me lately, it probably will come back a ms 62, or lower. Lol. Oh well. :/

    Thanks for a interesting story and pictures. It had everything - a start that made you want to "see page 2", a plot twist or 2, and an instructive if not totally happy ending. I guess the dime was your homerun shot.

    Nice of PCGS to provide the "Dad's Dollar" designation.

    Yes, and no. Thanks. Yes, towards my "Dad's Dollar's". but no, as to the Dime. The real treasure, besides my Dad's coins, it's the first Package. That nobody seen, was my real treasure Package. Thanks to all you guy's. <3
    One more thing... I am expecting one more Package from one of my most recent submission. This one some of you will be surprised to see. Me too! I'll keep you posted. Lol. ;)

    Package #4 has arrived. Here are my 4 disappointments.

    Ms 66. NO FB

    Ms 65 FS

    Ms 66

    Pf. 66

    If the 1965 Washington came back one more grade up, I would have considered this submission not too bad. Come to think of it, if all 4 came back one grade up, this would have been a fantastic submission. But, whatever? :*
    I do in fact, enjoy my toned Roosevelt.

    That's a great looking Quarter! ...the other three are pretty nice as well. A blue box? My last two submissions were the "black boxes". If we always get what we wanted, we would eventually be disappointed that we got what we received. I am sure that I am plagiarizing someone.
