    Why are the pgcs numbers not in order with some missing in sequence. Maybe the submitter asked for a minumum of 70?

    If you look at the link of the full submission the coins are organized by grade and variety.

    Some of the coins in between the 70's were either 69's with the variety or without it.

    ah ok. I didnt get that far. I have seven in sealed boxes now at PCGS eligible for First Strike. Hope I at least get one, but serious doubt it since they were shipped April 3 which may have been too early. But did read in a thread that some did get them in their subscriptions.

    Looks like at least a 60 grand order with conservative pricing!

    On the other hand, it adds to the overall total of how many are out there.

    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.

    regrade from undesignated MS70's.
  • That is the ONLY explanation I'll except

    << <i>regrade from undesignated MS70's. >>


    Don't think he would send in the 2008-W with reverse of 2008

    It was a bulk order, some of the coins inbetween were rev of 08's, he did not send them in for the designation.
  • He has the latest in date of 5/8 w/ only an 11 day turn, it has to be a re-label.
  • ca0100000ca0100000 Posts: 362 ✭✭
    Don't think its a re-label because of the amount of 2008 with rev of 2008.
    44 are ms69 2008 rev 2008 1 ms70

    << <i>regrade from undesignated MS70's. >>



    Edit: Didn't realize you had cut out the 69s. My guess is it was a nicely screened batch to get so many 70s. --Jerry
  • ca0100000ca0100000 Posts: 362 ✭✭
    Think First strike cut off was Apr 23rd, so these were not opened and screened.
  • notwilightnotwilight Posts: 12,864 ✭✭✭
    These very well might have been submitted before that date. --Jerry
  • in 5/8

  • What is more important is how the buyers are going to feel when the prices start to spiral downward. And that is of course what will happen soon. Even with being careful and only selling one at a time, it will still happen. Just look at the responses to this thread. Many, many coins are still in for grading and it looks like lots of them will be the elusive ms70. Im glad im not the poor sucker who bought the first few of these very common coins.

    Everything was common at one time. A 93S Morgan was common in 1893, a 1916D Merc was common in 1916.

    Why so gloomy? Spiral down, I'd like to think they will perform like the 95W. I believe the last PR70 sold for 30k?

    I may be off, but I know it was silly money.

    Wish I had bought more @ $26.

    Hmmmm...excluding the 17 "first few' I bought from the Mint at $25.95 I think I did OK with my early purchases of $129 69's and $249 70's. I guess I'm just a sucker at heart image

    what do you think this lucky PCGS submitter is thinking????

    Don't know what he's thinking but I'm thinking these things aren't rare even in el perfecto condition.

    Whoever is careless with the truth in small matters cannot be trusted with important matters.
