    69DMPL`s are getting harder to get. I just got an amark set back (3) 69pl (1) 69 and (1) 68pl. Thats 4 sets and 2 singles not 1 complete set in the bunch.Have 2F trades being graded they looked more like DM`s just hope they make 69.

    Anyway, it makes me quite happy as that means that my 69 Yos and 69 HS which just posted are DMPLs :-)

    I'm happy with these grades. Now when I get my set from CNT, I will look my other 3 sets over and decide which ones to send in for my 8

    From what I can see my grades on these are as good as any sent in with only the one set being graded.

    Maybe I should work on getting a set of 68 DMPL's as I have a 2 coin start already and that would be easier to collect than 69's.

    There are a lot of people wasting a lot of money on grading. The price of grading education is high on these pucks. I hope others realize that save their hard earned money. Unless these are basically perfect to the naked eye it's not worth the slabbing price. Live and learn. We've all made these mistakes in our coin education over the years. The most important point here is to LEARN from your mistakes.

    Perhaps.... but one or two DMPL coins can easily make up for the price of grading.

    What a shame. I don't understand why FTrade even bothered with these if they weren't willing to handle & ship them properly. All they've done is ruin a lot of nice sets. How can they possibly be trusted with the 2011s?

    During the past 2 weeks on ebay, the HS and Yos are fairly common in 68dmpl. Quite a few MHs too. There were only 2 GCs & they went for $450 & $432. And there were no Ystones. If you're going to put together a set, you'd better start looking now before the prices of those GCs & Ystones go up.

    I am hoping that out of the 2 sets and the 1 coming, that I have, I could pick out what I am missing and use my free grades from PCGS to

    make up what I need. Most of the 2 sets I have look pretty good but will wait for the other set before sending in my 8 coins.

    Ok...so ungraded sets are really stalling out on ebay. I'm seeing sets sell for $1300. After fees and shipping, these people are profiting like $150 TO $200. i guess its still worth it to a flipper, but at that price, I'm actually thinking about picking up a few more unopened sets. I think that once all of these are sold out at all the APs and the 2011's are underway, that they just have to gradually go back up in price. Does anyone think that $1400 is too much to pay for an unopened amark box?

    If you have the money to spend you should buy all the unopened Amark sets you can at that price. I myself can not afford to buy any more

    pucks but for sure are going to hold on to what I have because they are never going to get any cheaper with silver going up the way it is and

    this being a low mintage year.

    I would definitely pay $1400 for a sealed AMark box! I've noticed prices easing back up on these on the bay.

    Like this I believe

    $30 per coin regular service: regrade
    $8 handling fee
    Shipping both ways
    Donot need to pay for First Strike again.

    $158 + shipping

    They do not send it back in the original box, they use a small box inside a priority mail box.

    I don't know if they're getting tougher or what, but my latest (and last) Fidelitrade grades posted and they were all 68s with a mix of PL and DMPL. That's not bad, but before I sent them in I thought they were my best batch of all, and I had been pretty accurate with my predictions up to this point. For anybody trying to build a set and interested in a swap, I'm looking for an MS69 DMPL (or PL) Grand Canyon and have a post on the BST. Anyway, here's the breakdown of all my submissions, by AP:

    APMEX

    Yosemite MS68 DMPL
    Yellowstone MS68 PL
    Mt Hood MS69 PL

    A-Mark

    Yosemite MS69 DMPL
    Grand Canyon MS69
    Mt Hood MS69 PL
    Hot Springs MS69 PL

    Fidelitrade

    Yosemite MS69 DMPL
    Yosemite MS68 DMPL
    Yellowstone MS68 PL
    Yellowstone MS69 DMPL
    Mt Hood MS68 PL
    Mt Hood MS69 DMPL
    Hot Springs MS67 DMPL
    Hot Springs MS68 DMPL
    Grand Canyon MS67 DMPL
    Grand Canyon MS68 DMPL

    Dillon Gage

    Yosemite - kept raw, 68-69 PL
    Yellowstone - kept raw, not worth grading
    Mt Hood - kept raw, 68-69 DMPL
    Hot Springs - kept raw, not worth grading
    Grand Canyon - kept raw, 68-69 PL rev, obv maybe PL

    Quick question, how does Fidelitrade package the coins? Are they in air-tite holders?

    << <i>What is the cost of sending in a set of raw pucks to PCGS for grading? >>



    Roughly - $30 shipping to PCGS, $150 for grading plus $90 for optional first strike + $38 return shipping and handling.

    $308 give or take.

    The above price quote assumes the "Regular" service level @ $30 / coin, with a
    15 day turnaround. If you don't mind a 20-30 day turnaround, you can save $80
    by submitting under the "Modern" service level of just $14 / coin. Here's the fee

    Quick answer: yes.

    Long answer from their website:

    " Regarding packaging, the coins have been a) carefully removed from the original mint boxes and tubes (we use soft gloves and non-abrasive surfaces), b) immediately placed in hard plastic containers and inserted into bubble-wrap envelopes, c) they are then placed in corrugated boxes with bubble wrap cushion, and the boxes are sealed with reinforced tape. Shipments are continuing to ship every Tuesday via FedEx. "

    Why "must" you use regular service? MOdern says 1956 to date for coins with a maximum value of $1k. The vast majority (unless MS 69 DM) are selling for less then $1k on ebay. It seems like it's within the rules for Modern submission.

    Because PCGS has stated you need to use the regular service.
    Their service, their rules. If you question it, you should call their customer service line, M-F, and they can explain it in detail to you.

    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

    Hmmmm... Seems like some SERIOUS false advertising to me. lol. They should atleast specify it on their fee page for all those people who don't know.

    Sorry for the misinformation. Several weeks ago I called PCGS and I could swear the guy told me Modern was ok. Guess I'd better start with the Ginkgo therapy. image
