<p>[QUOTE=&quot;19Lyds, post: 1344505, member: 15929&quot;]These coin(s) would best be submitted for PCGS Spot Review and NOT Grade Guarantee. It&#039;s a &quot;FREE&quot; service which should cover this particular coin and it&#039;ll only cost you too/from shipping plus the $8.00 handling fee. It is also 100 times faster than using the Grade Guarantee which is a $25 per coin &quot;upfront&quot; charge. If the coin doesn&#039;t change in grade, they keep the $25 bucks. If it does, you get your $25 back.</p><p><br /></p><p>-------------------</p><p><br /></p><p><i><b>NOTE</b>: On 3/26/2011, I mailed a 3 coin Grade Guarantee Submission which cost me $107.95 total. The grades posted on 10/12/2011. 1 coin downgrade while the other 2 did not.</i></p><p><i><br /></i></p><p><i>On 7/1/2011, I mailed a 1 coin Spot Review Submission. The grade posted on 7/28/2011. PCGS Cleaned the coin up and it did not downgrade.</i></p><p><i><br /></i></p><p><i>On 7/23/2011, I mailed a 3 coin Spot Review Submission. The grades posted on 8/10/2011.</i></p><p><i><br /></i></p><p><i></i>-------------------</p><p><br /></p><p>Grades are guaranteed during spot review where they either replace the coin or pay the difference in a downgrade. I don&#039;t really foresee any problems with getting them to replace this particular coin if needed. Having a replacement 5 coin slab might be a different story though.</p><p><br /></p><p>Either way, you&#039;ll be responsible for Too/From shipping and the normal $8.00 handling fee. BTW, the cheapest Return Shipping Fee for 5 coins valued under $1,000 is $21.95.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Base minimum, you&#039;re looking at $8.00 handling and $21.95 return shipping ($29.95) plus a minimum of $18.30 for Express mail shipping to PCGS. They only accept either Registered Mail (su-low) or Express Mail shipping. They&#039;ll also accept FedEx but that&#039;ll cost you $20+ in not more.</p><p><br /></p><p>Are you sure you can&#039;t live with the spots?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
