I'm enjoying the reprieve. I figure with all the gold on standby, I won't be ordering anything from anywhere until I receive and pay for the 100 year old golds. It's nice to step back for a bit. The anticipation I think will be worth it when they finally arrive. I too just hope that the quality of the hand-selected are really nice.

I was told from on day 1 that it would be a mid to late January shipment.

It stated shipment would start Dec 28. when I ordered. Time will tell how long it will take to ship.

Well, you have to understand, sometimes unexpected production problems creep in (wink).
No excuse on this one. Nothing to do for most of them than capsule, basic clamshell, and ship.

Bit of risk with these ones. They have to ship everything pretty much at once. If they don't, and the coins are not well received by buyers who get them first, then they risk having an avalanche of cancelled orders.
I just hope they are not delaying shipment until all of the $10 coins are sold...

Good point CC. I'd be the first to pull the trigger and cancel but in this case I paid close to spot so I might wait a little longer, just to see.
It is frustrating to see them mess up again with delays - with coins in their hands.

I hope not.... That's 75% of my 2011-2012 coin budget... In one coin (  )! Not exactly a cheap coin for a YN... Especially at 15!

Quote: I just hope they are not delaying shipment until all of the $10 coins are sold...  That would be very much not good. Who knows how long that would be. I don't mind waiting - to a point. My main thing is anticipation of the quality of the coin. If the coin is not of a certain grade, it could possibly be worth only bullion value. (I doubt that would be the case, though.) I'm a little anxious, and watching for the post man every day.

I will too!
Then I will think about joining PCGS and sending this, along with a few other coins, in to get certified. The PCGS slab looks much, much better than the NGC one!
