More people in the same boat as you..... I'm not complaining much since they haven't charge me and that would spread out my CC bills..... hahahaha.

I placed my order for a 1914 $10 HS on Mar 18th and they charged my CC on Mar 19th (As it put me into the MC that day), from what I understand is that they ship within 2 days once charging your CC , still processing today, I guess we will see in the next day or two.

I called the mint yesterday and complained. They said they'd rush the order. I got shipping confirmation this morning.

Ok, I'm to stir the pot a bit more to keep this thread alive.....I sent my 6 coins to ICCS Tuesday, in about 2 weeks I should have some interesting results. My 1914 PHS $10 obverse puts these PCGS MS63's and NGC MS64's to shame, although I could not get a decent picture while in capsule. My 1912 $10 is a HS, while my 1913 $10 is a PHS but has the typical scratches evident on so many $10's that I have seen. For my $5, my 1912 is a PHS and is slightly nicer than my 1914 $5 HS, my 1913 HS $5, is somewhat less nicer, probably a MS61-62.

Tripoli, I asked ICCS if they would grade and not open the capsule. After grading put the whole capsule into the plastic flip. They told me it would not fit. I think they seriously consider doing that. Maybe you should ask too. I am sure lots more people would send their coins to ICCS for grading they would do that. If the flip could fit a canadian dollar, I think it should fit the capsule

ICCS told me to submit them in the capsule with the hologram seal intact....They will pop it out when they holder it, which I am ok with....I will be able to a take a much better scan of them when they are in the ICCS flip.

ICCS is charged $15 to grade the gold coin, plus $5 for the attribution, the exact wording, I will find out later.
I think PCGS may have required the capsules and the certs, which you then get back later on if at all.

For those that are interested, the Vancouver Mint Boutique still have the premium hand select $10 1913 and 1914 in stock.

I went there yesterday and Chris told me there were four 1913 $10 Premiums and two 1914 $10 Premiums left.

I think the reason they are still there is the lack of difference between them and the HS ones. People don't want to pay the extra $750 for the coins if they are so similar in quality.

It will be interesting to see what tripoli coins grade at.

It wouldn't fit given their internal Saflip in a vinyl flip. But, why do they need the Saflip? I always assumed that internal Saflip served as an archival holder and kept the coin from moving around a bit.

The capsule should be OK in just the vinyl flip.

Now that the 6 coin set is sold out, wondering if any one has seen it currently for sale?

Can't find a listing anywhere...

Also, really interested in seeing some pics from another 6 coin set to compare. The non-set coins (graded & non-graded) on ebay are generally in rough shape.
