Thanks for the video.

 On the silver coin. Any reason to Do COA?
 And to have it done with gold shield?

  Since it's still in it's sealed box I would do First strike for $18.

 As well when I get a Gold membership for $149 do I get to use the 4 Vouchers right away?

in theory: the voucher would credit just the base grading cost? (in this case "modern =$16")? correct?

If I received 10 coins in a box and I only want to grade 4, do I have to send in all the coins to get the first strike?

Is that even an option?

Subscriptions are for a calendar year or 12 months from when you start?

Anyway to send all 6 types of the Morgan and Peace in one bulk order? Doesn't seem like it. Hmm.

Any of you guys familiar? Whats the difference between Regular-$2500 Max($38), Economy $300 max($22), and Modern $2500($30), and modern Value at $300 ($17).

 Why would I pay an extra $8 per coin to grade a coin valued at $300+ when I can grade it at modern at $30 vs $38? What am I missing here?

 And the same for the $22 vs $17 grade?

 Lastly can I claim my $2700 Coin is only worth $2500? That way I don't have to pay $65 and get away with $30?
 Who's to say how much the value is?

 As well anyone familiar with sending for FS to PCGS, does one need a copy of each shipment for that FS Banner? Or a sealed box is good enough?





Assuming I have 8 Coins above $300+ it will cost minimum $30x8, that's already $240. So for another $9 just get the platinum membership that comes with 8 Voucher vs $69 for a membership that comes with no Vouchers?

I think what was mentioned elsewhere on DDF is that the higher price pays for insurance on the return shipping, and if you pay less and they grade it, ship it back, and if it gets lost the insurance covers only the value you paid for. But maybe I misunderstood and/or there’s more to it.
