<p>[QUOTE="sio2ga, post: 2591860, member: 83570"]I sent in a small order for grading the other day. Out of the 14 coins that I sent in, 2 were San Francisco Set Eagles in a first strike eligible mint sealed box and 10 were 5 sets of 2014 Kennedy 50th anv. Clad High Relief that was also in a first strike eligible mint sealed box. I specifically put on the order form that they were first strike eligible but not to but that on there if there was a charge for it. They came back without it, of course. I know the special blue labels that say early release have a fee but I thought maybe they'd at least print it in black ink for free, but NOPE! The eagles were both 69's and the clad Kennedy's were a disaster with mostly 66 & 67's. For those specific 12 coins it would have cost me $180 and not even worth $18 total to have it on all the labels. Not worth one tenth of what they would have charged me. First strike/early release designation is a sore subject for me![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
