There is NO WAY pcgs can grade one of these a 70. I've sent in perfect coins, under 10x, that I still can't find a problem with, that pcgs gave me a 69 on.
To say one of these is so perfect with not a single mark under 10x, impossible.

Thank you for your order of America the Beautiful Coins. Your order has been accepted and is now being processed.

Actually quite normal...Once you've been here longer you'll get used to it...Also, I expect the Yosemites "could" be rare in PCGS 69 as on many of them GW has a consistent spot/hit on the cheek.
<< <i>There is NO WAY pcgs can grade one of these a 70. >>
I agree. A 70 would be a million to one shot with pieces such as these. 69 should be very, very scarce. 67 would seem typical for these very atypical moderns.
I really hope when this is all over I can give AMark a high-five. So far they seem to be assuaging my initial fears.
1. The numbers after these sales look like they have a good chance of adding up. This means a wide and fair sale. If there are preferred customers, they'll be the vast minority. 2. AMark has had relatively good communication. No bull like "NO CALLS" and "GET OFF MY PROPERTY!!" 3. PCGS slabs, FS. 4. Online sale. No FedEx/UPS silliness. 5. They could have held a sale quicker, but they were not set up for retail. I guess I'm neutral with this.
The coins have yet to show up, but I'm feeling good. I hope that my only complaint at the end is that I can't buy retail from them. When I write my letter to the Mint, I hope to be able to give AMark a special spot. If the others are listening, learn from AMark.

I didn't think sellers could charge for insurance anymore. How does the seller know only 2 in 69? I can't any in the pop report. >>
If you have a PCGS CoinFacts account, you can get the current pop there by plugging in the number. Yosemite is 505102, and there have only been 2 graded MS69. I could have sworn there were more last time I checked, but that's what it currently says. There seem to be fewer Yosemite's graded compared to the others, but it's still the lowest MS69 percentage by far. Others range 7-13.

Is anyone else in limbo about Fidelitrade that had a 10:30 FedEx shipment? No response to emails I sent inquiring. No email confirmation from them. No check cashed. The only thing I have is a FedEx confirmation of delivery and a bad feeling I'm gonna get skunked on this one.
Yeah, I got a drone who did not give anything useful as far as answers go. She said "they'll contact you." She wouldn't even take my name and look it up to see if there was an account set up. Sounded like she was in a boiler room. I could hear several other "operators" on other phones.
Well it is odd that everyone in that shipment received a confirmation except you. Not much you can do about it I guess. A similar thing happened to me with MTB - they never emailed me the paperwork after I called. But then the day after the A-Mark sale they called & offered me a set. Said they were too busy before. I assume you checked your junk mail folder. That's where I found my notification.
"The only place success comes before work is in the dictionary."
Yeh, you might want to check it before you dump it. Lots of the first emails I get usually end up there. I check it every day. As far as registering goes, I think someone said the registration screen went up around 12:10 PST. You'd probably need to have gotten on the list fairly soon after that. I remember you had trouble with your screen not changing from the flag. What type of internet connection do you have?
"The only place success comes before work is in the dictionary."
I have comcast cable and use Safari, Foxfire, and internet explorer. I have a Mac and a pc. The only reason I was able to get on the site was because a buddy sent me a direct link to their site.

In short, it looks like F5 will do a page refresh, while a CTRL-F5 will force a refresh from the server, not from your cache. That's useful. And quicker than finding "empty cache" in the menus.

Sorry if this has been answered...at the time of the ad's posting (and maybe still) I checked the pops and there were two. However, the entire pops when I first noticed this ad and checked were for about 15 or so coins. Yet, at the same time there were two of these in 69 on Ebay and I (and others) have one as well. They are way behind on updating the pops.
Just as was the case with the $4K "sealed set" the ad is not false but misleading. It is very clear that the text of the ads when pushed to the limit of not false but misleading can bring big bucks. It's amazing how buyers will pay moon money for a coin with such and ad while the same coin/set goes unsold with a much smaller min. bid.
If the 69s are going to bring that kind of money mine are going on Ebay. I want to assemble and keep a PCGS 69 set but not that bad!!

Very early in the game. Perhaps the Yos. will be very tough in 69. Likely too early to tell. I guess that I lucked out with my Yos. in PCGS 69FS. I might put it on ebay as much as I want a 69 set. Nearly 4K is a lot to pass up it that's really what they will bring now.

I think it depends on what browser you're using. Which is probably why all of the confusion resulted. Probably CTRL-F5 is your best bet. In fact, you should be able to test it....you just need to find a page that's actively changing, and try F5, CTRL-F5, and probably SHIFT-F5, to see which load from the cache and which force a server refresh.

Thanks so much for the info!!
What is the difference between a page refresh and a server refresh? Which would be most useful for an A Mark type situation or a US Mint situation when the P pucks come out? I think it was the F5 that finally got me out of the A Mark flag page and onto the order link.

Did they get the email late Friday night or earlier in the day? I wonder if they are done sending out all 250 emails yet?
I have not received one yet and I had my name in there early. ( I think)
apparently the page read "please sign up if we get additional quantities in the future" or something like that
then a line was added "250 sets for sale next tuesday 1/25 to the first 250 on the list"
you would think they would load up an email with 250 names on the "to" list and let it fly.....

In short, it looks like F5 will do a page refresh, while a CTRL-F5 will force a refresh from the server, not from your cache. That's useful. And quicker than finding "empty cache" in the menus. >>

Thanks so much for the info!!
What is the difference between a page refresh and a server refresh? Which would be most useful for an A Mark type situation or a US Mint situation when the P pucks come out? I think it was the F5 that finally got me out of the A Mark flag page and onto the order link.
Again, thanks so much for the tech help!!!!!
