<p>[QUOTE=&quot;cpm9ball, post: 1321394, member: 24633&quot;]This will be the 8th consecutive year that I have attended the FUN Show. The nice part is that my NGC membership renews in November, so I always have my 5 free submissions to turn in at the show. At least it saves me $25 or so having to ship the coins the 100 miles up the coast.</p><p><br /></p><p>This year (January, 2012) NGC will be offering their Onsite Grading Special for Morgan and Peace Dollars @ $30 each with a minimum of 5 coins, so I&#039;ll be taking along some GSA CC&#039;s to submit. Getting them graded and back in 24 hours? You can&#039;t beat that! By the way, I already checked with NGC, and I can&#039;t use the freebie certificate with the Morgans even though the cost is the same.</p><p><br /></p><p>So, that leaves me trying to decide what to submit. I have 20 of the Brown Ikes that my parents gave me in the 70&#039;s, and I thought it might be nice to submit them for sentimental reasons. Obviously, they wouldn&#039;t be worth submitting, otherwise. The problem is that the free certificate is for EarlyBird service, and since I would like to have the cert #&#039;s consecutive, it would cost me $450 for the remaining 15 of them to go on the same submission form. But, if I submit them under the Modern tier, the whole lot of 20 would only cost $280.</p><p><br /></p><p>So, now I&#039;m back to &quot;square one&quot; trying to decide what to submit with the certificate. I haven&#039;t been searching any Mint bags &amp; rolls lately for my collection of MS68 Sac&#039;s, so that&#039;s not an option. I have a few raw Classic Commems, but they&#039;re not worth having graded either. (No sentimental attachment there.) My ANA Convention 3-Medal Sets were submitted last year. I have a few SCD&#039;s, but I want to keep them raw. I have some 2005 Satin Sets that I know will grade 70&#039;s, but I don&#039;t collect the satins. Maybe I should pull out 5 of the Kennedy&#039;s, submit them for the 70&#039;s and use them to trade for some of the Sac&#039;s I need? </p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m starting to get a headache!</p><p><br /></p><p>Chris[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
