Would you get some of your already graded coins regraded or would you submit some stuff that you hadn't yet sent in?

    A couple of regrades and the rest in cash.

    Regrades and maybe a crossover or two - I have very few raw coins.

    Probably some of each, re-grade and raw submissions.

    $500 free grading fees? I could certainly use a deal like that!

    I'd sell it. I have nothing to grade.

    Grade a raw set.

    I'd definitely spend it on crossovers.

    Most of my Gold is in NGC holders...and I'd love to add what I have to my Type Set in the Registry. But with AU gold being nearly/essentially bullion, it's not really worth the expense of crossing over. (Plus, I know I'll never finish the Gold portion of the type set anyway....So, I leave it.)

    With that scenario, I would be sending in raw coins to be graded.

    Some would be sure things. 'Slam dunks' that I've been procrastinating on.

    Some would be "this just might make it" things. Given the scenario, it would cost nothing to take the chance.

    Regrades and crossovers. I have nothing raw.

    Depends on which TPGS the credits were from.

    CAC credits would useful, "especially" if they would let me submit the coins directly to them myself. It's a real PIA to go through "authorized" dealers and to be treated like a second class citizen in the numismatic community.

    If it were NGC credits, I'd probably try to sell them to someone else.

    If it were PCGS credits, I'd probably try a few re-submissions and a few crossovers.

    I would submit a lot of my currency.

    After I cleaned my shorts from the total shock of it all I would have most of my raw coins graded.

    I would donate it to a YN if I could...

    I'd send the same coin in as many times as I could and publish the results.

    Sounds like that could be a ~3 year project. :)

    The same as I had been doing the last couple years (unless it was a coupon that needed used in 6 months).
