<p>[QUOTE="Vess1, post: 1294179, member: 13650"]I'm pretty sure they're going to need to be left in the mint sealed packaging and sent like that to get graded.

It cost me $60 to get one coin graded by NGC at a show. That was handing it to them in person and having it handed back to me the next day. No shipping or insurance. </p><p><br /></p><p> I don't know the cost but this isn't something you're going to get done for a hundred bucks. Probably closer to $200 for one set.
