I have a broken mint set that the case was broken some time ago while I was moving. Would it be wrong to send these coins out to be graded by them self? Larry S Saint Cyr - Brockton, MA
OK, I think what you are referring to is a proof set as opposed to a mint set. Proofs of that year were minted in in San Francisco while mint sets come with coins from both the Philadelphia and Denver mints. The proofs are packaged in a hard plastic holder and the mint sets are packaged in a soft cellophane type of packaging. I see no reason why you couldn't submit these coins individually. Folks do it all the time. I'm assuming that you want the grading company to "holder" the coins all together and not individually. I'm not sure if they will do that for coins sent in as "singles" and not in a mint holder. If I'm wrong someone's gonna chime in. One other thing. Unless you feel your coins are going to come back in an extremely high grade I'd re-think sending them in. Gonna be expensive, but that's just cheapo me.....:smile
John, Here is Eisenhower from that set that I'm talking about.. The rainbow effect is from the scanner it self.
