...and I did not receive a shipping notice nor does the website show my coin as being shipped. Still shows "Processing"!.

You'll get the email first. I think the RCM website gets update overnight, that's why there is the delay in updating sold out stuff and shipping info. My coin had arrived two days after the email, and that's the day the website got updated.

Didn't even get the email. Oh well, at least I finally received my coin.

I think they have serious IT issues, some of my orders from August still say processing, even though they have been delivered.

This is all very normal for the mint, it's been going on for years now.

I would rather the RCM have IT issues, than it having coin issues, although it's hard to separate the two sometimes. Perhaps your anticipation will be rewarded with a nicer coin.

What are people's thoughts on the premium hand selected 1913 and 1914 $10 gold coins. Are they worth the extra $750+ taxes? Is the quality much better than the hand select ones?

From what I have read in this post, and the 1914 HS $5 I just received, I think you are better off with the HS. It appears that the premium might bring you one, maybe two points up on the MS scale as opposed to the HS.

@MoneyPenney, I think of the 6 PS $10's I have seen, they could range from MS62-64 but I am not an expert grader in gold. They all have bag marks, it just depends on severity, and the number of them. But these only become apparent under magnification. They all have beautiful original lustre that gives them great eye appeal and all the reverses have been very nice, and equally lustrous.

Here is my 1914 $5 HS:   I'm open to suggestions on grade. I think MS60 to MS62.
