This was me until last week.
The following coins were submitted at the 2025 FUN show in early January and are now making their way home. Finally.
Was it worth the wait? Reckon so.
My little Greek crab graded as expected and got a “Fine Style” designation as a bonus. Always nice to see on an ancient. Always loved this type. Giant crab. Ketos sea monster snatching a fish. Eagle snatching a hare. A very active and predatory design!
The British 1797 “Cartwheel” 2 pence exceeded expectations. I figured it would go AU50. This is the coin that caused the crazy long wait, because I submitted it under the World Economy tier. Advice: if you submit under that tier, add your next of kin information to the form, so your heirs will get the coin if you die of old age while waiting for the grades to drop. 
The US $3 was no surprise- it was already NGC AU58 in an older slab. I wanted photos so I paid for Photovision imaging and a reholder. I’m happy with the pics. Doug Plascenscia at NGC does good work.

Glad you were satisfied with the results, if not the wait, Lord M.
Great looking coins. Love the eagle and crab along with the other two. Nice photo of the $3. Here is a use for your 1797.
