Mail Call.....Look at what showed up at the Post Office

TAClough

New up grade arrived at the Post Office today! One of these days I will learn how to take pictures

Looks like yours showed up intact. I also had a coin delivered today. An 1867-S dime PCGS VF30. They had run it thru a machine and broke the holder in two. Thank goodness the coin was NOT hurt.

This speaks to the idiocy of the seller who shipped the coin in an envelope moreso than the post office machinery.
Everyone by now ought to realize to ship a slab in a box.

Don't blame the dealer. Anything marked fragile and IS insured should NOT go thru the normal Post Office machines.

JMHO

Sorry but they have not taught the machines how to read yet.
Bubble pack mailers and boxes don't go threw the machines they are hand sorted, that's why they cost more to mail.

I learned this by having a slab sent in a number ten envelope to me. It was in pices when I opened the safty mailer.

I have gotten single slab purchases sent to me in bubble wrap, in a fedex box, which was wrapped with MORE bubble wrap and placed inside a larger fedex box. All in all about 14 inches by 4 inches by 10 inches.

That coin could have withstood a roadside bomb and still made it!

That's a terrific looking QDO......far and away a pop top...and the only cameo example holdered by PCGS.

Congrats on a great pick-up.

Great Coin and there is nothing wrong with your pictures!

The quintupling comes through loud and clear!

How did you end up with this beauty?
