    Being the grades just posted today, you're going to have to wait until they come back from PCGS!

    Yes, Marty gets so excited with his new purchases that they go into a shipping envelope within seconds of his eyes being layed upon them. There's no time for good pictures while the coin remains raw. Off to a grading service immediately. image

    If you get a big you suck for high grades, does this mean you get a "you don't suck very much at all" for a poor 1.

    Okay, I'll eat humble pie for the rest of us newbies. What ARE those grades? I've never seen them before.

    Any explanation or backstory also appreciated. Thanks!

  • The real question is:

    How many PM offers has Marty gotten with coin sight-unseen????







    Congrats on the PO-01!!!!!

    Thanks CCG! I never would have guessed! I thought they were special varieties or had been owned by a President or something! image

    Congratulations Marty.... I still am amazed at the fervor for the low grades... but it is fun to achieve.. as collecting should be. Cheers, RickO

    If they are doing collector freebies at FUN, my PO01s and Key Date FR02s will be there!

    Yes, Ric this is a very enjoyable (and frustrating) set to complete. The keys are easy, it's the common date coins that are really hard to find in that condition. My want list is down to 8 coins, and I'll keep looking!
