Crack or Cross?

I have two 1986 silver eagles, one in a SGS holder and one in a INB holder. Both are marked MS70, but without magnification I can see tiny marks on each. I still think they would grade fairly high.
So, should I try to cross them (cross them lower?), or crack them out into mylar flips with the rest of my raw submission?
I don't want to send them a lot of times...
Thanks,
Jessie L.

    Why not sell them as is and replace them with pre-graded PCGS coins in the grade you want? That would save some grading fees.

    But then these poor beauties would have to stay as they are.
    And buying an eagle, or a pair, of this year and grade would probably run me more than grading fees, unless I had to have them resubmitted four or five times.
    Besides which I have other things to grade which aren't really worth bothering to send in if these aren't worth bothering to send in...

    Maybe that subscription was a mistake if I'm not even going to submit anything...

    Cheers,

    Crack them out & send them in with your other raw, that way you only have to do 1 submission. If you can see see marks without magnification I think you'll be dissapointed with the grades you get but that's your business.
    Change that we can believe in is that change which is 90% silver.
