<p>[QUOTE=&quot;green18, post: 1797693, member: 10103&quot;]Not every dealer does, but a lot of the big boys do. You know....... the ones that run the full page adds in Coin World and Numismatic News. What the big boys do (and what the smaller dealers can&#039;t be bothered with) is to buy eagles in bulk and send them into the grading services in bulk. By buying in bulk they save a ton of money over what the average buyer pays for these. Their relationship with the grading services is much more amiable than with what you or I would experience if we were to send our meager holdings in. On top of that (with the bulk submission) they may specify that anything under a 70 or 69 grade not be holdered which further saves them money. I&#039;m not sure what the percentages of &#039;69 and &#039;70 coins is that come back to these fellows but it must be pretty high because they do it year after year and they&#039;ll probably continue do it (year after year) as long as the fish are biting........[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
