These are Presale but the seller says they have recieved their grades from PCGS. Based on the coins I went through I'm surprised anyone got this many MS66 coins.

Still, to each his own! I wonder what will happen with the circ. strike Sackies as they are by law to produce 1/3 the total of prezzies minted as sacs, yet there are over 110 million stockpiled by the Fed.If they thought they had a lot of Morgans accumulated, folks have seen nothing yet.
Well, just Love coins, period.

There may be a lot of MS66's down the road, but from the first hand reports on the board about the quality of rolls, there probably aren't that many First Day 66's. It looks like this submitter lucked into some of the best rolls, certainly top 10%. I could be buying the next 1973 Brown Box Ike (a coin that dropped 80% in value), but for now prices similar coins are bringing shows strong demand.
If the seller only had three of these sets instead of a big batch, and listed them no reserve, they would probably have gone for $400 or more at this point in time.
This guy has just got to thank this board.
<< <i>From what I have seen and heard of the quality of these coins I think that price could turn out to be a bargain ... >>
<< <i>As has been mentioned already, given the overall crummy quality of these coins... >>
There also have been many on these boards that have reported finding many higher quality coins in the MS65, 66 range, not just baggy, crummy examples. I for one have picked out several MS66 from OBW rolls, about 3 per roll is what I'm finding right now.
But this last quote is the key, that "First Day Issue" deal. That's the kicker like the First Strike racket - it's likely going to be a big hit with many collectors, and thus, these may in fact be a good buy based on that detail alone. But based on these being graded MS66? No, shouldn't be anyway because they are found easily enough in my experience. But that First Day of Issue.....having to get the coins in the mail THAT day....that's the ticket.

Russ,
You sound sceptical
<< <i>Where is that sliding fee scale anyway? What is the cost for grading an MS66? >>
I think it was 8 bucks, they will make a nice profit

I'm still trying to figure this out. Why would a coin collector care when the coin was sent in? Would a coin collector really pay a premium for an MS66 sent in on the first day of issue vs. an MS66 sent in on the tenth day of issue? If so, then WHY???
Please someone explain this to me.

<< <i>They are now officially sold out. >>
Since they were the first to list them on ebay, They sold them to cheap.
So I guess now we can run a "Presale of a Presale" auction and make a big profit.
$10 a coin if 66
$12 a coin if 67
$15 a coin if 68
$20 a coin if 69
$30 a coin if 70
So his cost was $22

They will come eventally, but very well could end up being very scarce, unless the mint set coins end up not having the satin finish, then all bets are off.
<< <i>Would a coin collector really pay a premium for an MS66 sent in on the first day of issue vs. an MS66 sent in on the tenth day of issue? >>
ABSOLUTELY! REF: First strike. Same deal (in a way) different "label".
I'm not one of those collectors, although at this point I think we need to start referring to them as fans, short for fanatic.

I bought two sets maybe I'll sell one have not decided yet. Sell one for the price of two now thats sounds like a good idea.

<< <i>I've done business before with this seller .. he's ok. >>
Congratulations! You should consider yourself one of the lucky ones!
I have also done business with this seller... (1) time ... and IMHO, unless he's changed considerably in the past 3 years, he's not OK! He put the screws to me a few years back by giving me my very first negative feedback... for absolutely NO reason what so ever (I have nearly 3,100 transactions and only (2) Negatives). If you check HIS feedback, you'll see I'm not alone, and most are "shipping Charge" related!
To elaborate... I purchased a $9.00 coin from him on a Sunday, mailed a money order first thing Monday, received an email from him by noon Tuesday stating he had received my payment and was mailing my coin (He lives less than 20 miles from me). He charges (or charged @ that time) $3.85 for shipping EACH COIN and (to this day) he will NOT combine shipping on multiple purchases. That's all well and good but I never received my coin. I emailed him (nicely) several times in regard to the shipping status of my coin. After two weeks, several emails, and still no coin, I emailed him stating I was willing to I purchase another coin with discounted shipping, or some other kind of a "deal" since I never received my initial purchase. The only thing he had to say was "you should have purchased insurance," and he expressed absolutely no interest in selling me another coin. Long story short... I left him a "neutral" stating that I didn't purchase insurance and mysteriously never received my coin OR proof of it being mailed. He reciprocated with a "negative" stating only "slow with payment," and THAT was a flat out LIE... and LIARS fall into the same catagory as thieves as far as I'm concerned, and I consider him BOTH!
I've (to this day) NEVER had a package get lost, whether I was the one mailing it, OR receiving it! The USPS "insurance" (less than $100.00) is primarily for breakage anyway. Trying to collect on a "lost" package is like pulling teeth, ESPECIALLY if it's a coin! You have to prove the value, then back that up with some sort of documentation showing the "true" value, present a valid receipt for the "lost" item showing what YOU paid, and... if what YOU paid is considerably more than the documentation showing the true value, you WILL collect the smaller amount, not to mention the fact that you have to wait 30 days before you can even file a claim ... just a royal pain in the arse!
Just FYI and future reference: He signs ALL of his emails with "Shirley" and his name is Doug (I assume this is either for Tax evading purposes or he's a cross dresser). After you pay your $3.85 for shipping, [IF] your package even arrives, I GUARANTEE the actual postage will be less than $1.00 (or at least nowhere NEAR what he charged you), and personally, I feel that sellers who [ridiculously] overcharge for shipping and/or WON'T combine shipping should be ... well ... let's just say it's not good business! You can deal with this guy if you choose to, but don't say you haven't been warned and [If] your experience with this seller happens to be a bad one, don't leave him anything but a negative... because that's what he's going to leave you... and he WON'T leave you ANY feedback until you leave it for him first... just a real pudd (for lack of a better word)! ... BOY ... THAT FELT GOOD!

<< <i>Sure they have.

Not here. My order was entered early also. Those sets went dirt cheap imho.
<< <i>makes me wonder if he got any 67's >>
There's this feller that I've been having on and off dealings with concerning Wide AM cents with who fits that mold. I have awesome respect for a guy that can build a biz this way and eek out his niche. $105 seems high for 2 new dollar coins, but given the pathetic striking and overzealous desire of the mint to take a dump on American collectors, finding a complete set in MS66 will likely be a fun challenge when this is over and though I made a firm commitment NOT to partake in this series, I would agree for fifty bucks per coin it isn't a bad or a good deal. It's one of them dangling carrots. Should I or shouldn't I ?

Well, If he tries to rip us off I think we have a small army here.
We'd just have to take him down !! He wouldn't stand a chance.
I hope I guessed right.

I don't think you have too much to worry about. They'll be hard to sell individually for $25 in the not so distant future. What are MS-66 Sac's bringing these days?
What's the PCGS number on these coins?

Ok.
I just received several coins from the over the past 2 weeks. Their return address label says "Shirley and Doug ______" so I believe they are husband and wife. They live in TX, and I have always have great service from them. In fact, I am on the email list of new offerings, and several of the coins I have been offered are nicely priced (ie: 2007 $50 Gold Buffalo graded by PCGS MS69 First Strike shipped for $775).

It was a very difficult task to get the $1 coins in any quantity on the first day. I have also repeatedly made the point that First Strike and now First Day coins are almost surely submitted once and only once. Which would most collectors prefer a MS66 that got the grade on the first try, or a coin that got it on the tenth try? If the MS66 coins go for a premium, there will be a lot of resubmits.
Another factor is that U. S. Mint may be reacting to complaints about low quality coins and improve their procedures. The edge lettering is new to them and there may be simple and easy steps that they can take (or not). This means later coins might be higher quality, and that is a big fear for those who buy high grade moderns that are in the first batch. However, the First Day designation is a separater, and gives some protection. If the Mint does change its procedures and subsequent coins are much higher quality, the First Day high grade coins have an umbrella against a huge new batch of high grade coins.
That said, it is still a crapshoot. However, looking at what other no reserve auction First Day coins were going for, the $105 price is well below current fair value. Whether that value will go up or down is anyone's guess.
