My son got his Fidelitrade set last week and it was terrible. The one I got from them about a month ago was very good. Makes me wonder if the sets they have left are the sets that have been sent back. Still a good deal if all you're looking for is to stack some silver. I was trying to put together a decent set but will fall short now. Just can't afford any more sets of these while looking down the barrel at the Mints 2010 set and the two 2011 sets.

Well, I filled out an order for two sets from Fidelitrade. Regardless of their condition, it's still a great under-spot silver deal. Hopefully they aren't scratched, rubbed, dinged, etc., like their disclaimer on their site states.
I sent in an order to Fidelitrade OVER a month ago and I'm still waiting. lol. THey still have not even mailed it out yet. I'm thinking they'll get to it next week. lol.

I hope they are not down to rejects I need 2 DMPL`s to make a set The last 2 sets were almost all DMPL`s just 68`s instead of 69`s.If fidelatrade and JHCB are watching load me up with 69-DMPL`s and we will see about ordering some monster boxes .
The UPS man dropped off my MTB sets and they are nice. Would probably be PL or DMPL (not sure what the difference is) if they went to PCGS but I am not spending the grading fees. Right now I am into these under spot - so into the safe they go...
I'm about to send my ATB bullion into PCGS for grading. MY PCGS membership lapsed a few months ago. If I purchase a platinum membership, can I use the 8 vouchers to grade 8 ATBs? I know I have to pay $18 extra each for FS.
I'm sure this was covered previously in this monster thread, but I can't find the post, even with google's help.

<< <i>I'm debating the same question if it worth forking over $144 for 8 FS designations for the coins that will always qualify for FS by PCGS.
Does it really offer any advantage on 2010 ATBs? >>
Not worth it IMO. We all know they were minted at the same time and the First Strike / Early Release grades that the graders hand out is pretty worthless to us in the know. And if you ever do see a signficant change in the resale value you can always send them back to get the FS grade added.
Pcgs could stop allowing the first strike designation any time they want. Not sure about this but doubt if they will put it on in a few years when you go to grade.

No offense but they do not have to sell anything, all the have to do is submit a stupid paper to the mint telling them that they sold everything
I have to say this because it has been bugging me for awhile .....
WTF is with the $18 for FS when ALL the pucks are FS???
Maybe I could understand the fee with time limited issues .....but to pay $18 to have 2 words printed on a label of a coin that EVERY submission is eligible for just seems ridiculous

<< <i> No offense but they do not have to sell anything, all the have to do is submit a stupid paper to the mint telling them that they sold everything >>
You have a good point there.
FS for these is bogus. I still wouldn't think twice before paying for it...it'll probably just hurt resale value later if it's not there.

i got the C & T set today and they look very nice, all PL/DMPL and almost no contact marks. the MTB set i got a couple days ago were not good. a lot of contact marks and 3 of them were downright dull!!! they almost looked like they were buffed with scotchbrite. not die polish marks. the C & T set will go in for grading, the MTB set i`ll keep for the bullion aspect.
My Tracking Info for my CNT set says it was shipped March 30th from Mass. and was supposed to arrive in California for me on April 1st. But when I check on USPS it STILL says its in Mass. >.< FML!

It's going via Registered mail which is very slowwww. It won't update on the USPS website till it gets to your local sorting facility. It's not still in Mass. but on a armed and secure mule train somwhere in fly-over country. I bet you get it in the next 2-3 days.

I agree that having first strike means little to me but sell 2 exact coins the first stike will almost always bring more and also sell first, so it maters to the people buying. Recently there were ATB`s on e-bay 1 first strike 1 non first strike (very ) rare but if I had bought I would have taken the first strike to match my other coins.

Man I hope you are right. I need this set to come in soon so I can FINALLY mail out a few sets to PCGS all in one box to save on shipping. lol.
So I have been inYosemite for two days now taking some great pics of the real life puc. Some people wondered why the parks would not opt for selling these coins. I am happy they are not. The park is wonderful but the main gift shop is a sorry excuse for a flea market. These would have no market or respect here. Will post a photo when I get home.

If you are keeping them, doesn't matter.

If I were buying a coin and the choice was 1st strike or not, I would buy the 1st strike every time. It is
worth the extra money for resale purposes, if not for you, then for whoever is going to sell your coins in
the future.
