Got my 2 free submissions- what a nice perk!

I am a little embarrassed to admit it, but I didn't realize until last week that if you cracked the top 5 in a registry category and your set was 90% complete that you could get a grading voucher for 2 free submissions for coins in that category. I stumbled across that blurb by accident and realized that my CBHD set with varieties was at #5 and was 92% complete.

All I had to do was send an e-mail and, voila!- 3 days later I get a submission form in the mail for my 2 free grades! I am very appreciative- I cracked 2 NGC coins that would help my set and sent them in.

I know that this is probably no new news to most of you who participate in the Registry, but it really made my day.

    It is pretty cool...just doesn't apply to those with "modern" sets image
    Yours is definitely NOT modern though image

    I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment

    Did something change within the rules?
    It was in effect when my clad Roosevelt set hit the 90% mark. image

    Your set only has to be 90% complete for free gradings. If your set is 100% complete and in the top 5 then you qualify for free pedigree (except for modern Mint and Proof sets (1965-present) or Low Ball sets).

    You're thinking of "pedigree" not free gradings.

    So my number 1 IKE Low Ball Set doesn;t qualify?
    I decided to change calling the bathroom the John and renamed it the Jim. I feel so much better saying I went to the Jim this morning.
