    I ordered a bunch of Kennedy halves and a couple Franklin halves from these guys on 5/04. As of today, it says my order is still processing. It said they had multiples of everything I ordered. How long does it take to ship out some coins? :(

    Why not just call them and ask? In these modern times I see more and more people using emails, posting on forums, etc., but neglecting the good old fashioned phone, which often results in a much quicker answer to a question.

    Well, everything I ordered said it was MS 63, which isn't too hard to obtain in the coins I ordered. The two Franklins are a 48 and 48-d MS62 and MS63. Both supposedly have full bell lines. Will see when they get here. As far as coins go, I wouldn't order much else from them without seeing them. I just found it very easy to pick the last ones I needed for my 64-85 book at their site, since they had everything I needed. Wasn't shopping for Franklins but I am slowly filling a Whitman folder of them and couldn't pass up the 48s they had.

    I just read on the website that the first week of the month is busy for them because of some auctions ending. Said orders placed during that time may take a full 5-10 days to process and then 3-4 days shipping.

    Looks like I might be waiting another couple of weeks.

    slow shipping is the least concern :) as long as you do get the coins AND in the condition or better then expected... slow shipping is nothing :D

    good luck, i do hope you get the coins and they are better then you expected :)

    Pulling silver out of circulation has been slow lately. As long as they are searching $20,000 to $30,000 per week, finding your Franklins shouldn't take too long, all though the 48 and 48D are a lot less common than the 62 and 63 Franklins.

    LOL

    Seriously, as mentioned above, I'd call. Some companies have crappy websites that they don't update the order status in a timely manner. Could be they actually shipped but no one ever manually updated your order status.
