It is weird that I accidently left the two best examples at home. I'll get pics up in a couple of days.

Congratulations on the grades, looks like you fared pretty decently. Did you only submit the coins you thought would receive gem grades, or did you just get a few really nice 1973 mint sets?

I was just thinking about how if ANACS ever brought back their small holders and offered some worthwhile bulk deals, I would definitely send them some business.

 

I hate those small holders, but if you actually do have some bulk submissions (20 coins isn't bulk) you just call them for pricing for what you have

 

I was somewhat selective on picking out mint sets off of ebay, but not so selective to have not purchased about 12 sets in 2 weeks. As for the ikes, I sent them all off, regardless of my own assessment. I intended to also send in most of the other coins, except the really bad individual coins. It just so happened that I left two sets behind. Initially I was going to take them all apart, and then I decided to just pull the Ikes out because it ends up being a lot of work I cut them out, whased them in acetone, and put them in shells. Then I had to find flips to submit them!. I ran out of flips anyway.

 

one 67 is neat. I don't know the market value, but still.
