My gold reverse proof just got a PR69 at PCGS. If I want to sell the set, would I be just as well off to crack it out and put it back in the set? Or should I advertise it as a PR69?
I think I'd leave it in the slab if you want to sell it. If you didn't want it in the slab why would you have sent it to PCGS to be graded and slabbed? Besides that, certified coins seem to be the hot sellers nowadays. The other option would be to sit tight for just a bit and see if the coins are selling for more individually or as a set. As an aside, did PCGS put anything on the slab label to denote the Reverse Proof? Or maybe you don't have it in hand yet and so you don't know.
Man I can't believe how much the PR70's are selling for. I'd crack it out and resubmit it, no question about it. I missed out on that set. I did get some of the silver sets with the reverse proof in it and will be sending those in for grading as soon as I get them.
I don't think I'd crack it out and resubmit it to see if it will get a PR70. That's a big gamble and chances are it will still come back 69 and you'll be out another grading fee, then you'll be doing this :headbang: ...Just my opinion.
I never had my coins graded. For my information, about how much does NGC/PCGS charge for grading a proof AGE? Thanks!
Best I can tell... If you send in 5 coins its about $30/coin and you wait at least a month. If you just send one, its more like $50
would not crack it out of the case myself. looks like the 69's are going for some serious bucks already. who know what could happen if you try to un slab them. i would not have enuff nerve myself but that is just me

Does anyone out there collect these for the sake of putting together a complete set of beautiful coins? Why does everyone get so wrapped up in 69 or 70? If you want to make money get into investments. What ever happened to numismatists and collectors?
