When submitting coins, especially if they are the same series, do you list your coins on the submission form in a certain order?
I do. I list them in order from what I feel is the lesser grade to the highest grade. I think it's human nature to mentally compare like objects. So let say you have 4 lincoln cents and you feel one is a 64, one is a 64+, one is a 65 and the last is a 66. The graders look at the first coin in the submission and grade it 64. They have the mental image of that 64 and see the next coin is nicer, and maybe you get a 65.
Probably makes no difference, but it makes me feel better.

This.
Of course if they're all the same type and date, I guess it doesn't matter too much.
