Just got the email. Usually my success rate is more like 50-60% so 80% is a nice surprise but not really unexpected as most are very nice toners. Thought a couple had a shot at the gold but alas, no cigar. Still happy overall though
I've posted most of them in the Morgan or toning thread within the last month or so. Once you get a feel for their standards and what they like your success rate tends to go up. Honestly I thought the 2 that didn't go had a good shot too.
Just in case you are interested in starting... http://www.ebay.com/itm/Franklin-Mi...253399?hash=item28306eb497:g:1UIAAOSwsW9Y3afy
I'm surprised it's worth stickering coins like the 81-S that are so readily available in MS. You find they fetch enough more to justify the costs from CAC? edit: also speaking of common dates with CACs, this was my first coin with a sticker on it picked up last week:
CAC is almost like in the passed where they use PQ. I just don't understand what is the point. I do know that you will have to pay for the premium for CAC, but many times I don't agree with the sticker. The coin look nicer but not much, but have to pay that extra $30. or more for the same coin.
Nice results Chris. Sorry I missed this thread earlier. I guess that's what happens when I only look at the "Recent Topics" on the right side of the screen. I should start digging into the forums themselves. Looks like you are developing an eye for what they like. I have a submission in right now with 14 of my coins. They received it last Monday, so I hope to hear from them soon.
