    I've bought a couple of coins from eBay in these 'Fabulous 12' capsules.

    How do these coins compare with graded coins?

    Is it better to send these coins to a third-party grading company such as A.N.A.C.S. for authentication and grading?

    How do I insert images from my computer directly onto this website? The images are stored in my computer.

    Hi, go to the reply box and below the reply area, use the tab 'upload a file' and it should work. Then click on insert full image and it will show up like this just to be sure it worked the way I said.

    Thanks, desertgem!!

    Okay, the above are images of a 2007 Silver Britannia in a Fabulous 12 capsule I recently bought from an eBay seller from Poland. I'm thinking of sending it to A.N.A.C.S. for authentication and grading but I would like to know how a graded coin compares with a coin in a Fabulous 12 capsule, particularly in terms of price.

    I've seen a number of eBay sellers listing their coins with 'in Fabulous 12 capsule' as part of their listings. These coins do not have the f12 mark on them, but simply come in Fabulous 12 capsules. I've not noticed any significant differences in price between coins in Fabulous 12 capsules and those without these capsules.

    So, I just want to know if Fabulous 12 capsules are just an advertising gimmick, or is there a significance in these capsules, and, if so, what's the significance?

    Thanks so much in advance for your assistance and replies.

    I'm wondering if "Fabulous 12" may just be a brand name for the holder.
