<p>[QUOTE="goldmember, post: 1315363, member: 19304"]I can refute this since I think I have gotten the lowest number of 70's of anyone I have seen that submitted to NGC. I got 11 of 25 in 70 (with no complete 70 sets), and one 67. All of my S mint coins were MS69, and 3 of my reverse proofs were PF70. I have sold two complete 69 sets, one reverse proof 70, 2 bullion 70's, and 2 proof 70's for a total of 15 coins and my gross profit was $4200. I used that to buy two OGP sets on ebay and I still have one complete set (4 x 70 and 1 x 69), a reverse proof 70, 2 S mint 69's, 1 burnished 70 and 1 burnished 67. My end result is that I have 3 complete sets and 3 more "key" coins from the set and I got them all for free. In my case grading paid off well, even with the lackluster results. There is no way selling in OGP gets you this payoff. Of course I got great prices for what I sold, and prices have come down a lot since then.</p><p><br /></p><p>And, as I always state, I am still satisfied with my results even though they are not as great as others have gotten.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
