Message:: [QUOTE="Vess1, post: 816226, member: 13650"]Having second thoughts now... Thanks for all the commentary.   I have mainly stuck to buying stuff that was slabbed already or straight from the mint.   I have only a few from shows that I 'was' interested in sending.     But I don't think I can do it now.   I took four of them out to look at them last night and they just aren't as good as what I thought they were in my mind.  Under closer inspection, the nickel was nowhere near FS.  Has a really nice golden tone but probably not worth grading.   One was a 1926 Peace dollar that I think would max out at MS-64.  I really would like to know on that one but I don't think it could get anymore than that.    I have a feeling the CBH may not even grade as there's very dark areas inside the numbers while the rest of the coin is light.    I thought these were much better than they are.    I may just be down to sending a few in for re-holder now.    I don't think there's a minimum on that.   I do have a dealer I could go to but it would be more hassle than doing it myself.  They are not nearby and I doubt there would be a discount.   After all my complaining here, I really can't come up with 5 loose ones worth sending in.  Maybe just the Peace dollar and a Lincoln right now that I'm sure would grade.[/QUOTE]
