Yeah now that I know I will definitely do that next time. Also I can’t edit my previous post but I think it’s okay because I’ve already received...
I was originally going to send them in the mint packaging but I wanted to pre-screen and only send in the ones I thought had a chance at 70....
I wasn’t counting the pre-screened ones. You’re right they do cherry-pick the 70s. That’s why the population report says that all of them are...
Thanks I will let you guys know how it goes. Hopefully I get decent grades. I should’ve sent my 2021 reverse proofs in too. :/
Thanks :). Now I know. Yeah that’s why I wanted to get mine in. The First Strike cutoff is November 18th and mine should get there by the 16th...
I asked them via email if I could do that because it sounded ridiculous to put a capsule in a flip as if that helps at all. I told them I didn’t...
Thanks :). I guess I’m just nervous because it’s my first submission and I’ve never seen anyone send coins in before. I may have gone a bit...
That’s awesome! One of my biggest dreams is to find a coin over 250 years old. Sadly I live in California so there is nothing to find in terms...
Oh ok thanks. Yeah I just went through all that hassle to package and ship everything exactly like they wanted and filled out all the complicated...
No one better be throwing my coins anywhere! O_o I packaged them exactly as PCGS told me too. I even went and bought the 2.5” x 2.5” Mylar...
Tbh I don’t really care about if they’re not able to sign it. I just don’t want my coins to be returned to me ungraded because there was no one...
Oh ok yeah I don’t have a problem with that. As long as they get it. I just didn’t want to have my package returned back to me because no one was...
I just shipped my 18x 2021 Morgans and Peace Dollars to PCGS and I was asked if I wanted “signature on delivery” with my shipment. I said yes...
You’re right we will never know. It’s an interesting debate though. Sometimes I like to play devil’s advocate just to try to see things from...
It’s true Suetonius didn’t exactly paint him in a great light. But I also believe it’s possible that he was biased as many Roman historians were....
Keep in mind it would take a little more than 20 of those to have 1 troy oz of gold. That’s a pretty big premium. But hey if you like the coin...
Sometimes I wonder if the engravers were just given verbal descriptions. Like those sketch artists who draw pictures of wanted criminals without...
Hmm my denarius doesn’t portray Faustina the Younger with a pointy nose. It looks kind of stubby to me. [ATTACH] Maybe some engravers just...
To be fair Lucilla did have connections and support that even Commodus didn’t know about. For example she managed to convince Praetorian Prefect...
I think Lucilla did what she did because she knew Commodus was not ready or capable of being an effective Emperor and she decided to put Rome...
