    Ahha....the Basketball Box!

  • keetskeets Posts: 25,351 ✭✭✭✭✭

    what kind of sucks is that I have a medal at PCGS right now for grading but it'll never come back in one of the orange boxes, it's just too big. that means I might have to beg. :p

    Then the boxes will have to be graded, which will give rise to box doctors carefully buffing out scuffs and scratches and retouching paint so as not to be detected by the box graders, who will then have to pay closer attention to plastic flow lines and paint chemistry, and then..., and then..., and then...

    Will the first orange boxes shipped have "First Strike™" stickers on them?

    I still think they should use these for coins graded on Halloween.

    Do they need a sticker to have any value?

    you need qualifying basketball coin in submission to get one - I wonder if the premium will offset the US Mint loss?

    I'd like to see a yellow one for submitted gold coins. But orange ones would do.

    Need a Red one so I can mix it with the Black one I just got for the BullDogs! :#

  • darth_morgandarth_morgan Posts: 192 ✭✭✭✭

    I still need a black box, and I want an orange one too. They’ll be on eBay at some point. For PCGS, I think black looks the best. For NGC, that silver one is best, although their red box looks pretty cool too.
