I got my one set today.
The dollar coin has a carbon spot / stain to the right of the bust and a mark on the reverse which I'm not sure if it is a planchet flaw or a bag mark as it does not disturb the luster.

Got my five sets and at first glance I really like the silver medals very nice. The RP dollars are too but I can see tiny marks/spots somewhere on all five of them so I am pretty sure if I see ANYthing an expert would never give it a 70 so no point in sending them in I think.

Mine didn't show up today  I'm getting the feeling this is a lottery type situation. It's gonna be FUN to see how these play out.

Mine did not come in yesterday.  Stuff usually takes an hour (or so) to go from the sort facility to my PO. It happens so fast I usually have it before the tracking is updated. However, tracking shows it just arrived at the PO last night. Dang holiday backlog.

I had to make 2 orders because I messed up on the 1st only ordering 1 set, so I had to go back and get my other 4. Both my boxes came in like 3-4 days ago and I had the $4.95 shipping. Wonder why its taking you guys so long to get yours?
Also are people getting this set graded? And if so are you just getting the RP graded or both RP and medal?

My shipment has to pass through two Fed-Ex sort facilities before getting to my PO, which is between the two! I am closer to the second than the first, but still!

Quote: Also are people getting this set graded? And if so are you just getting the RP graded or both RP and medal Definitely getting the RP graded if there are no obvious issues that I can see.... Still haven't decided on the medal. I have sent MANY coins for grading but have zero experience with medals..no clue what the market is/will be...so I'm giving it a week and will decide then

The budget shipping times can vary a lot. Sometimes it takes a few days, and others a couple weeks. Sad part is that it doesn't cost that much less than priority mail.

Plus he's in NY. A much straighter shot than us westies. And the guy in Hawaii that got his days ago probably went directly to an airplane with no ground routing

Those are "published" rates. They're the starting point for negotiating with FedEx, UPS, DHL, etc. Those rates don't indicate at all what they're actually paying.
