I have to say I really enjoyed this experience of sending
coins into NGC. I would like to try ANACS next.
Where I am still undecided about how I feel about the
1788 Vermont, I am so happy with the results on how the
other four turned out, I can worry about that later.
And to be real, the coin is what it is.
As I said before, to me coin selection very important for
TPG submission. And I got lucky ... it could have been worse.
Now I have some coins that, if I decide to sell, will sell
better because of being in a NGC slab.

been great, so you can see I am very happy with this.
Of course these are not real world prices. Depending on
how a person was selling these coins, 50 to 75 percent
of those prices would be closer to what is possible.
For me, I have had most of these coins for years, and I am
sure I have less than $300 in all of them.
Just saying that to stress, to learn as much as you can
about the coins you are buying. Always try to find the best
price. And hold on to them for a long time ....
