Oh boy check this out, I just might do it. Then maybe not. https://www.pcgs.com/shows/detail/6...dium=spotlight&utm_content=ana_special_offers
Here is the NGC ad. http://engage.collectiblesgroup.com...JKzNWMDdKQVY3bXpJUnVMSDB2REpsNzVvRDdZNEsifQ==
I might do the NGC one. It's becoming a mini-set of ANA show releases. Once again, I find the PCGS label and slab to be hideous.
If all you want is a label, then find a dealer who is submitting these in large enough quantities to get the lower rate. They want 70s, and will blow out 69s. Offer to trade your raw coin for a slabbed 69 out of their submission. Yours may grade 70, and it may grade 69, but you're getting a free holder out of the deal, and not losing money on grading. A single coin submission is going to leave you buried in the coin, even if it does grade 70.
Unlimited mintage? I wouldn’t bother. I’m sure the TV charlatans will compare it to the limited 2017-s to give their buyers a good screwing.
Amen to that! But you DO realize that the effect of making it "unlimited mintage" will be that FEWER are minted than would be if they had set a limit, right?
OK, then "submitting" it by trading it to a dealer for a coin in his show submission will leave you less buried in your show souvenir than had you submitted it yourself.
Do you think they'll be ready for pickup by Saturday that way? Whoa! I just read the NGC procedures. Surcharge much?
Assuming the dealer with which you make the trade will be submitting to the TPG at the same time you would, it won't be any more or less likely to be. There will be dealers that want these coins in their cases at the show ASAP.
Come to think, I have a doctors appointment, on the 14th, to get my second Photodynamic therapy (PDT) treatment, so I won't be there till Friday. https://www.cancer.org/treatment/tr...cts/treatment-types/photodynamic-therapy.html
Anything the United States Mint can do to discourage the flipper market to appear is a VERY GOOD THING, always. Their absence keeps mintages DOWN.
