<p>[QUOTE=&quot;non_cents, post: 1781001, member: 30970&quot;]Sending a coin in for grading relies on a variety of things.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>-Purpose for slabbing (resale, registry set, &quot;just for fun&quot;, collection, etc)</p><p>-What type of coin you are sending in (die variety, foreign coin, colonial, ancient, etc)</p><p>-If the pros outweigh the cons...are you sending in a $10 coin or a $100 coin? Would the cost of sending it in through a dealer (usually $30-40) be worth having it in plastic with a grade on it?</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>As Larry said, you should also read up on all the facts yourself. Educate before you agree to send coins in through a dealer. Know what TPG you want to send it to, any special designation you want on the slab if applicable, estimated time frame, etc.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I sent a coin to PCGS through another forum member, and I made sure to read up on what to expect and educated myself before sending it off. It really helps if you know exactly what happens once the coin leaves your hands.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
