<p>[QUOTE="WACoinGuy, post: 1705, member: 174"]Just thought I'd give an update on what I decided to do. I think I'm going to submit it to have it slabbed myself after I get the coin. The main reason is that I recently purchased another coin from a different dealer at a coin show that I'd like to have graded (it was a very good deal and I'd like a third-party evaluation so I know if I should look for this guy at future coin shows). I figure I might as well do them at the same time.</p><p><br /></p><p>I'm thinking of doing the 1-year membership at PCGS. According to the website, for the $99 fee you get 4 free gradings (making it only $25 each), plus you get a free 2003 silver dollar to sweeten the deal. I have two other coins from the first dealer that are in uncirculated condition that I'd like to get graded, so I figure I can just do all four in one fell swoop. If these coins come back graded as I bought them, I'll have that much more faith in these dealers...[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
