<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Phil Ham, post: 1301062, member: 5787&quot;]I&#039;ve created a new thread on the grading of the 25th aniversary set to get opinions in one place on the pro&#039;s and con&#039;s of grading of this set.&nbsp; I received my five sets on Thursday and they&#039;re sitting beside me on a table in the unopened mint box.&nbsp; I&#039;m a coin collector who loves copper and silver coins but have never sent coins into a grading company.&nbsp; I&#039;ve only got a few graded coins that I bought for cheap at an auction.&nbsp; My first question is should I send all 5 sets to a grading company in the sealed mint box?&nbsp; What grading company (I&#039;m thinking NGC)?&nbsp; What type of member should I become assuming I pick NGC?&nbsp; Does it take long to become a member and can I immediately send in the box for grading to get the early release status?&nbsp; Why should early release even matter?&nbsp; Why grade the three coins in the set that you can get through other means?&nbsp; Does the 25th aniversary designation matter on these coins?&nbsp; Since the grading will cost nearly as much as the set, will it pay off in the end?&nbsp; I should say that I&#039;m not interested in selling them but just curious about the future value of my collection.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
