<p>[QUOTE="Oldrdawg, post: 2649319, member: 84149"]Sending in it by itself is a dicey proposition because of the cost of grading, postage, insurance, etc. I've always heard that the rule of thumb is that you should wait until you're sending in <i>at least</i> 10 coins so that the costs can be spread over all the coins. It doesn't make it cheaper, just cheaper <i>per piece</i>. My local coin dealer takes submissions from his clients and sends them all in together. Whatever small markup he adds to the process for himself is nothing compared to the savings associated with making a large submission. If your a member of a club or have a dealer like mine nearby, it might be worth looking into.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
