This is my first submission to any TPG and I expect that the grades I'm hoping for may get walked on. Took me a long time to buck up and bite the bullet, but after a few years of reading and studying I'm feeling a bit more comfortable. Posted the package Friday morning and sent the coins five day express, so the gades should be back by a week from Wednesday (I hope). Here's the list:
1932 D 25 cents Heavily worn and damaged to boot. I may get a net grade of P01 on this.
1958 25 cents except for a large nick on the eagle's left wing this is pristene. I hope for an MS64
1992 S 25 cents Silver Proof. I can't find any flaws on this under 10x magnification and it is HEAVY CAMEO. I'd be happy with PR68 Heavy Cam, but I think this has a legitimate shot at doing better.
1940 10 cents looking for MS65 Full Bands
1950 D 5 cents true gem with subtle pastel toning. Hoping for MS66 with 5+ steps
1875 CC Seated Half Dollar. This was my first coin (found in my house). Hoping for VF30.
1960 D Franklin Half Dollar. Looking for MS65 FBL.
1921 Peace Dollar. This coin was subjected to a harsh cleaning at some point, but still deserves a slab in my opinion. AU detail net XF45 Cleaned.
1884 O Morgan. True gem and beautifully toned. Looking for MS65.
That's what I sent. Regardless of the numbers that come back I know I will learn a lot, and that's what it's really about. I'll keep you posted.

I don't see what they see but there is always a few that don't grade for this. I have even sent acetone dipped coins that were said to have active PVC residue. I have never understood what they are seeing. I wish someone woukd explain it to me. I quit sending coins to them for this reason.
I hope you have better luck.
I hope you didn't send them through the "economy" channel. I sent my first ever submissions to them back in May. I'm still waiting for them to come back home. When I called, they told me that a 90 day wait is typical, but not to worry cuz they were locked away in their safe. My response was..... "It takes 1/4 of a year to grade a few coins? Why can't you give people waiting times on your website?"
Again, good luck, let us know what your outcome is.
If ANACS has had your economy submission that long, call them up and ask if you can send the $3 difference on each coin and have them upgraded to 5 day service. I did that on my first submission. I sent them the check, they upgraded the service and I had the coins back within a week.
