Since others on the forum had mentioned them, I thought I would document the progress of my submission for CCF. I communicated with the owner in advance, and he was very helpful about confirming the varieties that he attributes. The coins that I sent via USPS were: 1935 Buffalo nickel DDR FS-801, ICG Genuine slab 1945-S Mercury dime, Inverted Mint Mark FS-504, ANACS MS64 1954-S Jefferson nickel, DDR FS-801, NGC MS66 1957-D Washington quarter, Misplaced-D FS-501 (902?), ANACS MS63 I will note that the submission form seems to be live code intended to work with JavaScript or something similar. I have my browser configured to block those flavors of active code, so I had to print out the form. I did have to cross out a bunch of default example stuff, which presumably the code would have otherwise handled. As of today, my package has arrived at the P.O. Box in Illinois. It's my intention to eventually liquidate these four coins on ebay, so I will document that process as well. Report this Post to the Staff

Brandmeister Pillar of the Community United States 7042 Posts	Posted 11/07/2026 10:32 am I received my return package from VSS at the post office this morning. The box with the four slabs was very well packed, and included an invoice. The slabs themselves look great. The stickers are well fitted to each slab and look very professional. John was prompt in his communications and very helpful. So far, this has been an outstanding experience. =) Report this Post to the Staff
Brandmeister Pillar of the Community United States 7042 Posts	Posted 11/07/2026 10:38 am Worth mentioning: the total cost of round trip submission—outgoing USPS shipping, VSS fees, return postage, insurance—averaged out to $16 per coin. I feel that's an excellent value for the service provided by Variety Slabbing Service. I should add, I think that 21 days door-to-door is blazingly fast for any sort of professional coin service.

numismatic student Bedrock of the Community United States 12045 Posts	Posted Yesterday 9:20 pm Congratulations on your successful submission! IN NECESSARIIS UNITAS - IN DUBIIS LIBERTAS - IN OMNIBUS CARITAS THE MAN IN THE ARENA, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne Paris on April 23, 1910: "It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."
