Mint Discs On Coins For Grading?

Ron, thanks for answering questions here.

What do you think is the better way to send coins in for grading. In the Saflips or leave in the mint capsules before placing them into the saflip? I worry the coins can scratch in the saflip in transit, but I also think there is an odd chance the capsule could scratch the rim during removal.

What do you suggest?

    The preferred method is to leave the coins in the capsules, where they will remain quite safe during transit. We'll then transfer them to our own "capsules." :-)
