[QUOTE="Lehigh96, post: 3797741, member: 15309"]The grading fees only reach that level when you are in the high value coins or have so few coins to submit that the S&H becomes a huge part of the grading fee. The NGC prices are as follows: Modern (Post 1955): $17 Economy (Max value $300): $20 Early Bird (Max value $3K): $35 Express (Max value $10K): $60 Walkthrough (Max value $100K): $150 If you are only submitting one coin, then it would be cheaper to just piggyback it on someone else’s submission rather than pay full S&H charges. If you submit multiple coins it mitigates the S&H costs. They used to require submissions to be at least 5 coins. My recent submission is near 50 coins with most being economy class. My total S&H was approximately $75 for a $5K value submission. That means I’m paying $21.50 per coin for grading fees. I have no problems submitting premium gem war Nickels, breaking even on the MS66s and making small profits on MS67s. My criteria for submitting coins is simple; if I can turn a profit, I will submit it.[/QUOTE]
