I only have 2 coins that I want to get graded.

Any suggestions on what I should do since it says you have to submit all 5 coins with the certificate ONE time, not multiple submissions.

So, what should I use the other 3 freebies on?

Do the submissions have an expiring date ? I'd save them for later. The coins that you have shown are not worth slabbing, IMO. Like I have said before, slabbing does not increase the value of a common date coin. A $18 1921 Morgan is still a $18 Morgan in or out of the plastic. That coin is basically near melt value up to MS62.

I decided not to slab that one or the 50 cent piece!

I've invested a little in silver bullion and I put those 2 coins with my other silver and silver american eagles.

I have a 1959 penny that was put in a protector back in...1959. I'm going to submit that along with a lincoln wheat. I need to also buy a camera so I can take better pics of all of these! :)

I'd wait til you start getting into the key dates. These have higher values and are often counterfeited. That's when getting coins certified is worth it.
Your 1959, if in MS64 RD, is not going to be worth more than a few dollars.

I think it will grade higher than 64. At least a 65. There were multiple uncirculated rolls and this was the best coin out of all of then, back in 1959. It hasn't been touched since.

I'm going with my father to get some stuff out of his parents safe deposit box soon. Maybe there's some stuff in there that they'd let me send in for grading. I'll take a look at it all!

with 1sikevo. Hold off on grading until you have some key coins that would benefit from it.

I'd love to have 5 free NGC grades... yeah, wait until you get coins worth slabbing. If it's worth less than the (would be) submission price, obviously don't submit it.
