Got my Freebies back in exactly 21 days. I guess the blackout dates didn't matter.

1 21684093 1909-S 1C Lincoln USA VF20BN - Right on. Was hoping for 25, but was happy with 20.
2 21684094 1943 1C USA Altered Surfaces - The coin was technically perfect, but the blue tinge worried me. I guess it was messed with.
3 21684095 1955-D 10C USA MS65FB - Right on. Scored an FB on my first shot.
4 21684096 1955 50C USA PR66 - Was hoping for a 67, but am happy with a 66.

This helps me a lot, because I was worried that my grading technique might have been way off, but after seeing these two (especially lines 3 & 4) I know I'm playing in the ballpark.

Time to start submitting some REAL coins.

    Are these coins you picked up on one of your trips to the bank?

    First body bag is kinda a right of passage around here. Good grading.

    Funny, Russ.

    Yeah, I got the FB in pocket change the other day. And the PR 50c was in a penny tray. I found the 09-S on the sidewalk. Pretty good finds.

    a 1909 s,... in VF.... on the sidewalk?

    Anyone else imagine the turn of events and Providence landing this into CD's lap? I see an 11 year old YN crying his eyes out at home with that new hole in the Whitman staring at him--a birthday present from his grandpa, too? That 'll teach that YN to be more careful next time.
    Do your best to avoid circular arguments, as it will help you reason better, because better reasoning is often a result of avoiding circular arguments.

    Good thing you got to them before the branch manager spotted you.

    Me thinks In Yawaeh We Trust has been conditioned with too much dogma.
