    Here's the Grades: No BB's and coins pretty much as expected. Braddick said it was "sweet" but I'd call it a pretty POOR submission - six PO01's and six FR02's.......and that's what I like to see:

    LINE # CERT # COIN DATE DENOMINATION VARIETY COUNTRY GRADE
    1 40056294 1794 1C Head of 1793 USA PO01BN ..............................yep, cool variety
    2 40056295 1797 1C 97 Reverse, Stems USA PO01BN ......................yep
    3 40056296 1798 1C 1st Hair Style USA FR02BN ...............................yep, hoped for PO01 but....
    4 40056297 1810 1C USA FR02BN ....................................................thought it would PO01
    5 40056298 1818 1C USA FR02BN ....................................................yep
    6 40056299 1861 1C USA FR02 ........................................................expected AG03 so pleased with FR02
    7 40056300 1867 1C USA FR02BN ....................................................I got robbed - this is a PO01 anyday of the week
    8 40056301 1851 3CS USA AG03 ......................................................yep
    9 40056302 1856 3CS USA PO01 .....................................................wow, I hoped for FR02 and expected a AG03
    10 40056303 1861 3CS USA G04 .....................................................for a type3, this is pretty darned good
    11 40056304 1867 3CN USA G06 .....................................................yep, can't find a more worn coin
    12 40056305 1853 H10C Arrows USA G04 ........................................yep, filler till I find a more worn coin
    13 40056306 1943-P 5C USA AG03 ..................................................guessed G4 but really didn't have any idea
    14 40056307 1827 10C USA FR02 ....................................................yep
    15 40056308 1842 10C USA AG03 ....................................................expected FR02
    16 40056309 1873-S 25C Arrows USA PO01 .....................................yep pop 1/24 (?why's the pop so low?)
    17 40056310 1838 50C Reeded Edge USA PO01 ...............................yep
    18 40056311 1922 S$1 USA PO01 ....................................................Braddick said it would go PO01 and he was right!

    I wonder if they are as concerned with grading these as accurately as they might be with high end coins.

    My daughter was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes at the age of 2 (2003). My son was diagnosed with Type 1 when he was 17 on December 31, 2009. We were stunned that another child of ours had been diagnosed. Please, if you don't have a favorite charity, consider giving to the JDRF (Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation)

    << <i>I wonder if they are as concerned with grading these as accurately as they might be with high end coins. >>

    In a word, yes. PCGS does not easily give the PO01 grade. Also, due to the simple fact they probably receive one of Craig's type of submissions for every 10,000 "regular" ones, I'm pretty sure the Graders give the coins a bit of extra care*





    *Although nothing says they aren't smirking or even laughing out loud as they do so!

    If the graders are perusing these boreds I'm sure they try VERY hard to see that smoe folks don't get the very best of the worst!! image
    PO01 should not be taken lightly.

    I am really impressed with your collection.
    Looks like a tremendous accomplishment to be proud of.
    I can see it'll be really really difficult to upgrade to a 1.00 grade level. image

    Actually there are only so many MS65 1938-D Buffalos and MS66 1941-S Mercuries along with Modern Kennedies in PR68DCAM and MS65 1880-S Morgans I can view.

    Craig's coins are 100X more difficult to locate and as long as Dealers continue to sell them at "another man's trash" prices... I'm fine.

    That has to be the lowest cumulative grade total, in relation to the number of coins submitted.....EVER!

    Braddick did you ever have a submission that could rival that? ! image
