    the first thought that came to my mind is what a waste of money.
    i see one or two coins that i might have sent in... but nah... just one.

    Is it a waste of money to have fun?

    200+ dollars easy spent on plastic and that is called fun around here?

    it is like you could have rebought all those coins for the money spent
    on grading, shipping, and handling....

    as for fun, what do you get out of besides some low grades that help
    you determine what is low grade? to learn that the near melt coins
    have damage?

    When was the last time you got a charge out of this thing we call collecting, and why, if you still get one, does your buzz rank higher than mine.

    The 79-CC was cracked out of a PCGS FR02 holder, I was really hoping for a PO01 on that one!!! Well.....

    by all means keep sending hard earned money to coin insiders so they can afford their expensive cars if
    you call that fun! pcgs needs to keep that stock up!

    psst, some stubborn folks want you to think a complete waste of money can be fun
    because it is related to coins. same coins, nothing is different about them, reading
    a few web pages could have helped you to determine the grades and condition, but
    without pcgs it ain't fun! ;-)

    for the record, i have never submitted a coin and probably never will.

    It's refreshing that you don't let that stop you from passing judgment on those who do.

    I have a raw 1874 arrows dime that would either go PO1 or FR2 if you're interested.

    i am shocked, simply shocked :-P that i am not free to give my
    opinion on this board without members calling it passing
    judgement. i think they get so annoyed because there is some
    truth and accuracy in my observations.

    but as you know, the moral of this board is, blow your wad if it
    makes you happy! dealers/tpgs need you!
