Waiting is part of the fun! 😋
Let us know how it turns out.
And, Welcome to the forum!
Good luck !!!
Nice!
If one thinks back (not too far for some, a long way for others) to special events in life...(i.e. Christmas, summer vacation, birthdays, weddings, births), those events were always preceded by waiting, usually with excitement...so in that perspective, waiting is good - and usually with something special/enjoyable when the time arrives.

Thanks all....Echoing in my mind..."Are we there yet, are we, are, we are we?" hahaha
Have a great Day

It’s not too much fun... lol. My regular submission is still in Encapsulation and has been since last Monday. I wouldn’t think it should take that long to get put into a holder? When I submitted it, I had visions of 15 biz days (standard service level) then COVID shutdowns happened and things got backlogged. I guess it’ll be > 2 months from when they received it to before they ship it back. It’ll be 2 months in 6 days.
Binge watching TV shows took a lot of the fun out of the waiting for the next episode or season to air. Where those three little words, "To Be Continued..." used to elicit pained responses and feelings of tension that would take at least a week to resolve, now they just make you check what time it is and decide whether you can stay up for another 22 or 43 minutes.
I told my brother after his daughter watched Empire Strikes Back for the first time that he should make her wait 3 years to see Return of the Jedi, but show her a teaser trailer once in a while.
I do wish the gratification of getting grades were a bit more instant than it is, however.

Now the fun part on what price to ask for on the 2 duds.
I'm getting personally frustrated with myself on not being a better judge of "cleaned" coins. The old saying "if it looks too good too be true it probably isn't" keeps ringing in my ears.
Life goes on, time for a vacation.
