Congrats on your turnout Tim Well Tim, you can open your eyes now that the results are out and you nailed it on the head. I'm glad that MightyMike did get at least four graded at 70, my guess would have been one out of the ten. Good guess on your part Tim. Maybe you can wangle a half of a 70 coin out of MightyMike..... for the winning guess, but don't hold your breathe. Berry Report this Post to the Staff
Bryan1315 Bedrock of the Community United States 14454 Posts	Posted 09/07/2006 6:34 pm I disagree that leave it in the original packaging, the mint has a tendancy to use packaging that causes damage when left in there for a long period of time, and there is more to a slabbed coin than just to know what they grade, it offers protection that no mint packaging can offer, so the 70's now will be 70's down the road and not be covered with carbon spots or anything else that may be a problem for mint packaging Congrats on the results I wouldn't have guessed it would be that high, you must have had some Beautiful coins there and I agree with your decision to have them slabbed. And since you have 4 MNS-70's from PCGS you can sell 3 of them and pay for the whole 10 you bought, and maybe have some monet left over to buy some 20th anniversary sets Edited by Bryan1315 09/07/2006 6:37 pm Report this Post to the Staff
MightyMike New Member United States 8 Posts	Posted 09/08/2006 5:40 pm Hi Bryan, Thanks for the comments.You have aroused my curiosity. How does one go about selling the coins for the best price. What sources should I look to? Second, I would prefer to sell the 6- 69's over the 3 70's. Are the 70's worth 2 times the 69's? Berry, You suggested that I split a coin but that I would not be willing to do that. I may be willing but I don't know how to split a coin evenly. Is there a special saw? And most importantly, if I do that is the sum of the parts greater than the whole? If you couldn't tell, this was said purely tongue in cheek and I hope it put a few smiles on peoples faces. Thanks Report this Post to the Staff

lou b New Member United States 37 Posts	Posted 09/08/2006 6:58 pm A comment to Bryan 1315. I have proofs from 1956 on up and not one of them has ever toned in any way. Gold sits at the bottom of the ocean for hundreds of years and does not change color. All of the grading company's slabs have been tested and none of them have an air proof seal. So it is pretty difficult for me to accept your theory. By the way, how on earth would carbon spots form on a gold coin? Report this Post to the Staff
