Millenium Sac..

Not a bad closing price on the bay considering the Mintage of 75,000 coins and a Total of about 2 % have been graded by PCGS.Many were encapsulated by ICG and some by NGC.

    At first, PCGS was not grading these as being included in that set but ICG was (as I recall). I should see what my 2 would grade at PCGS (ICG did not give them a grade).
    I'd keep playing. I don't think the heavy stuff will be coming down for quite a while!

    I've been buying the ICG's on the cheap just to cross over, got a few ACG's just to rescue them from the holders. I have noticed the price on the sets getting more expensive the past few weeks, this could be the reason...

  • Texast,

    What kind of grades have you been getting from the crossover submissions? I'd be interested to see if they would cross the MS Eagle in MS69.

    You guys made me do it...

    Wonder what the deal is with the $1 bills. Is there really a demand for early numbers? Not a big fan of paper myself (in case you didn't already know.. LOL) so might dump the dollars separately if I can recoup a decent amount from the cost of the sets. The coins are MINE ALL MINE though. image

    There is a feeling that the Sacs in the ICG holders which are not graded are worth substatially less as you can see from some of the auctions and from PCGS.NGC also grades these as well.ICG did not initially grade them ,only encapsulate them as to authenticity as to Millenium Sacs.
    I don't know...image
    Whether that holds true for the Goodacre Sac which has a similar finish and rinsing remains to be seen.The planchets were indeed better on the Goodacre.

    My millenium ICG Sacs all look really nice, and since NGC will give then the PL designation, that's where I'll be sending them. Think ICG was just worried they'd turn because of the burnishing and ironically it's the millennium silver eagles they graded that have all turned. I can see a huge milkspot on the reverse of one in the set I bought today.

    Don't know what to do the the worthless green paper though... maybe spend it at McDonald's. image

    The Millenium set ASE sells for ~10,000 in a NGC MS70.

    Every single one I have is riddled with milkspots. And milkspots typically don't dip off. So must take something close to a miracle to get an MS70.
  • Only 15 2000 Millenium set ASE's have graded MS70 at NGC. In MS69 it trades around $130.

    I have not tried to cross any of the Eagles, I have some sets in for grading now, I expect they will go MS 68 / 69, lots of marks on them even in the sets. My main intrest is the Sac's, Lots of nice ones in ICG holders without grades, I've got several in PCGS holders that I use for comparison and most are better than the MS66, a few better than MS67. I'll find out when I get them back.
