Secure Plus a Requirement for Pre 1955 World Coins

Part of a solution- as stated earlier in this thread- seemed to be a well thought out step in the right direction. Unfortunately, the idea was probably POA.

Because of the tons of fake coins and authentic coins with issues....

If I'm going to buy an expensive foreign coin ($500+) i would want it in a secure plus holder.

I have 21 pre '55 gold coins in right now. The invoice including shipping/insurance and grading secure plus ($45) is $987.95
That amounts to just over $47 per coin. The three illustrated went "regular". The cost with shipping/insurance for 3 coins totalled $122.25 which equates to just under $41 per coin.

Not much difference. The real costs are selling on eBay and not seeing a gain because of a 20% drop in the yellow stuff over the past 7 or 8 months.

Hey for gold it makes sense - I don't think anyone has that much of a problem with that - cost of doing biz - whatever you are talking about a multi hundred $ coin to start with - I was reffering to the ones just $100-200 or even less anything under $200 even makes no sense to spend what 45 bucks+....

dunno maybe I'm not seeing the whole picture here.

Well, I can not say I disagree when I have heard "that's outrageous" exclamations. 47/submission is pretty high IMO. Well, good luck to them and think that it probably will cut submissions - which perhaps is a short-term goal. Less problems, more money...
