Submitting FS Jefferson's to PCGS

Bruggs

I've got a group of nice full steppers ready to get slabbed. I was wondering what level do you submit them at, economy or regular service. With the prices of fs coins today, some of the dates are bringing over $300 (the supposed cut-off for economy). I'm a rookie at PCGS submitting and don't want to get started wrong.

Thanks......

I have the same question as I have quite a few full steps that I bought raw over the years...I was leaning towards economy just cause I dont know if they will grade ms64, 65 or 66..... I have one slabbed ms66 full step and the raw nickels I have look as good as this baby...

I would, and have, submitted them at economy. It is hard to be certain, most of the time, if it will come back FS, and what the grade will be.

Thanks Greg. I will be disappointed if any less than 18 of the 20 I submit come back without the FS designation. Not sure about the grade though. Hopefully no less than 64's.

Bruggs,

Here is my latest. It posted today. I'm still learning the Jeffs and PCGS's interpretation. The SMS coins all demonstrate some cameo. Obviously not enough to satisfy their standard, but still very nice coins. I miss them. I'll be glad when I get them back! Guess the ding on the steps of the 74-D kept it from the designation. All of these were submitted modern.
