Submit or not on 58 proof set

coinrookie

Okay, I just got a 58 proof set. No cameos, but the coins are beautiful. I think the worst coin would go 67. The others would go higher. Do you think it would be worth submitting the whole set to PCGS. Also with all the horror stories about fingerprints lately, I am a little cautious. I would be postal p- offed if they came back with prints.

I think your best bet would be to sell the set to Lucy. Can't trust those cats at PCGs.

Go for it if you are going to keep the coins, otherwise you might want to research the value of the coins first. mdwoods

Lucy, the cats at Pcgs do make me nervous. I won the set and only paid 30.00 bucks. An okay deal I think.
Micheal, I plan on keeping them as my birth year set. I may have more into them if I submit than they are worth. But it would be my first submission ever and the experiece might outweight the cost.

If none of the coins make 68, then you would do better to try and pick up the coins, already certified, on Ebay. Just keep it as a birthyear Proof Set.

Well if you have PCGS slab them it will cost another $87.50, but then you could put them in the Registry in the 1958 Proof set category and be in the top 5!

And then for another $12.50 you can get them pedigreed with your name on the insert (check with PCGS first - I don't know if they pedigree the proof sets?)

Or you can buy $100 worth of coins.

It almost sounds simplier to just sell the set to Lucy and collect Kennedy's instead.

I'd have to advise against it.Unless you are really good at gradeing.None of those coins would meet the $50 minimum value we all decided was needed to be worth it.
