<p>[QUOTE=&quot;lordmarcovan, post: 16484503, member: 10461&quot;]No grades yet, and this is only a portion of the stuff I submitted to NGC and PCGS at the show, but I&#039;m tickled to be seeing the images so relatively soon, and think they look good.</p><p><br /></p><p><b><span style="color: #ff0000">Update, 4/30/23: </span></b><a href="https://www.cointalk.com/threads/ngc-submission-6700874-images-and-results.402474/page-2#post-24561464" class="internalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.cointalk.com/threads/ngc-submission-6700874-images-and-results.402474/page-2#post-24561464">submission results in Post #23</a>.</p><p><br /></p><p>This submission includes the first Athenian Owl tetradrachm I have owned in my 46 years of collecting. I recently got it, the lifetime Alexander the Great drachm (xxx-003 below), the Constantine the Great AE3 (xxx-004), and the Tiberius Tribute penny (xxx-006), at $750 for all four pieces, which I thought was a hard deal to pass up! At that price, I felt like I was buying the Owl at a fair price and getting the other three for free! Furthermore, the Owl, the Constantine, and the Alexander were all ex-NGC pieces, which came with the old slab inserts. (The previous owner, a more traditionalist collector, had cracked them out of the plastic.) I&#039;m resubmitting them raw, so there&#039;s no guarantee they&#039;ll receive the same grades this time around, but they should do OK.</p><p><br /></p><p><b>Athenian Owl tetradrachm.
