definitely not my intention. My warning was to those who might not realize that a Dansco album will impart a toning on their SAEs that some find less than pleasing. In my personal experience I found that the longer they stayed in that album, the browner they became. But it is just MHO. My choice of words was poor and if I offended you, I sincerely apologize.
Just called the mint for my order status (i ordered as a guest) and found that my May 9th order was originally on backorder until 8/8/13 but when I called she said i was expected to ship on the 18th so im hoping for arrival by the 22nd-23rd. Yippee
the new coin seems to be pretty difficult to photograph not one pic have i seen which looks as good as the mints advertisement

The Mint shipped my order on 7-11-13. Fedex still has it. In order to get First Strike/Early Releases designation, should the OGP be packaged in another box and shipped to the grader? I hope I'm asking the question correctly!
Which TPG. NGC asks that you don't send the OGP with the coins unless you fill out the form and mail it past the date they're eligible. I don't know PCGS's rules.
