<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Lehigh96, post: 7997401, member: 15309&quot;] <ol> <li>&nbsp; 7, TPG certification doesn&#039;t increase value, it increases liquidity</li> <li>&nbsp; 5, For series that experience counterfeits or problem coins I would say 1</li> <li>&nbsp; 5, This is an EV calculation.&nbsp; If I can make more money by submitting the coin, then it doesn&#039;t matter that the value is under $100.&nbsp; Jefferson War Nickels are a good example.&nbsp; If they are raw, most people won&#039;t pay more than $20 so if I have a coin that I know will grade MS67, I will almost always make more money by submitting the coin even though the total value is still less than $100.</li> <li>&nbsp; Yes, 1, again this is an EV calculation.</li> <li>&nbsp; I specialize in Jefferson Nickels so that would be my answer.</li> <li>&nbsp; The certification number provides a level of organization that makes selling them much easier.&nbsp; Trying to keep track of hundreds of raw coins, many with the same date/mm is very difficult, even when using a good organizational system.&nbsp; Also, the slab provides a level of protection that allows for easy handling of the coin.</li> <li>&nbsp; This one is tough because the answer is that it depends.&nbsp; Sometimes I send a coin in and I missed the problem, but once I get the coin back in the details slab, I find the problem and agree with the assigned grade.&nbsp; Other times, the TPGs will assign a ridiculous details grade for a wide assortment of reasons that I don&#039;t agree with at all.&nbsp; In fact, I have resubmitted many of these coins, only to have them come back in problem free holders, so when I get back a coin with what I think is a &quot;phantom&quot; details grade, I will crack it and resubmit or sell it raw.</li> <li>&nbsp; 2, if the shipment gets lost, I want full compensation.</li> <li>&nbsp; 1, but I still submit most of my coins to NGC.&nbsp; Believe it or not, that is a very complicated question when it comes to Jefferson Nickels.</li> </ol><p>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
