Conder would be an asset and boon to your staff, much like he is to these boards.

I am a 63% success rate, but I cherry picked what I thought were my best coins. I wish I had more to submit, but I don't. In my (limited)...
58. Little too much field rub for it to upgrade to mint state.
I will say 58 on the CC, and 64+ on the 1899. I really like the look of the 1899.

Most gold collectors would enjoy a coin or two in their collection with the "romantic" C or D mintmark. A type collector would probably select...
One thing about CAC that is overlooked is that a coin they sticker is an A or B coin for the grade, AND it is a coin they are willing to buy. So,...
