  Could you imagine grading 480 pres. dollars in a row? I think I just puked in my mouth.

  Id love to know what triggers "WOW thats a 70, Yup, that sure is a 70"
  
  my back is hurting just thinking of sitting there peering at all those cookie cutter coins....
  
  at some point Id go running for the doors, screaming "Quick, get me a Trime!!"

  Nice bashing. I was thinking about explaining how this works but I see nobody is interested. --Jerry

  It all really depends upon where the numbers go with his 70's. That Andrew Jackson looks pretty good with a pop of only 39. But then that would kill any full PR70 sets as he/she only got the one complete set.
  
  PCGS is really tough on the PR70 Presidential dollars and they can get quite costly.
  
  All in all though, its not looking good right now.

  I decided to change calling the bathroom the John and renamed it the Jim. I feel so much better saying I went to the Jim this morning.

  So was that a bulk submission with 69DCAM as the min grade? I'm assuming that is the case because of the two dozen or so no grades at the bottom of the invoice. If that's the case then I believe the grading fees on the 69DCAM coins was lower than the normal modern tier service, which probably gives the submitter enough of a margin to at least break even, and that's before he sells the 70s.

  If that was only a 100 coin submission he may have done alright. If at $6(guessemate) dealer rate per coin- he might break even.
