I really don't understand the appeal. They will almost all come back either 69 or 70, and you can't really tell the difference between those two with the naked eye. I'd rather own a modern proof set in the original mint packaging anyway.
I would try to see if NGC would fix that weirdly holdered one. I personally wouldn’t say this submission was a failure. The two 70s are really nice, and you didn’t get any 68s! I have never heard of the light finish error, but that is really interesting. Thanks for the good video.
Interesting video. I've never sent any coins in for grading. I've heard claimed that the mint casings can actually mask some scratches that will show up once removed. Perhaps that is what happened. Personally I'll like always be in the market for non-70s. The price is lower and coins like you showed here are still beautiful.
Nice coins man.. I feel badd Dude that sucks you should Have Gotten SPF70 on all cars the other ones were no different ... Just A for the hell of it how much did that cost you to send the whole set In for grading Never graded anything so I was just wondering... I subscribed your Channel and Like..
Congratulations! I’d personally like to know how much it cost you; how difficult the process was, and did PCGS appraise them or provide you with an estimate of what they should sell for? Are you up, breaking even, etc..? As a new collector, I just feel super intimidated by the process and the high costs.. ya know? I understand if you don’t want to answer, I’m just curious..
for ngc : i know the min. is $17 for grading, $5 xtra to put it in a holder, then $10 processing charge, plus tax and shipping x2 "to and from" ... i have heard a good rule of thumb is the coin should be worth at least $200. then if they find something wrong with it they will put details on it and not grade it. so i have found that grading companies SUCK !!!! ever notice on these videos nobody ever says what the spent ?
I'd be very disappointed -- Obviously, PCGS is NOT the only really tough grader. They all have the same standards, or they should have! I've got ANACS 69's that I swore would bring 70 but did not. Same with ICG -- but being as frank as possible, it galls the daylights out of me that some people pay more money for a PCGS slab than an NGC or ANACS, etc. Whenever they do this, they're perpetuating the myth that somehow PCGS has higher standards ......they don't.
trust me i spent hours looking i bought over 50 sets and looked for the best coins out of fifty each and this is what i got, i used a 10x loupe and a digital microscope
Check ebay for the differences between 68, 69 and 70 for most modern coins. Even when rarity is not a factor and most coins (more than half) get the 70 grading, 70 gets higher returns. Also, these NGC cases are a better than what the Mint provides for long term storage and protection. The risk is that if you don't get the PF70 and you expected to make money, then you might be screwed.
Make sure you follow me on Instagram @Garrett’sCoins to see new videos coming out and other stuff
The ngc grader was probably in a bad mood.
I would not call that a failure...
Thanks for sharing. Congrats on the two 70's.
Yeah better then none
Grading companies just love when people spend money to get moderns certified.

Thanks for watching. You are right i should see if they can fix it

I agree with Coin Searcher.... no failure there. Nice grades! US! Subbed!
They all look great.
Those were cool! I have not seen a reverse proof American coin like that. Where did you get the set?
Pretty good haul man. Just throw them in the safe and forget about them for 20 years and you'll do fine👊

Shield cents will always be backward.
Jim Wiles yeah I don’t mind it as much now
That’s weird really?

i agree 100%
I laughed when they popped open lll.
nice coins i would take them
Audio was low could hardly hear what you were saying.
Hey there! Did you have to buy those proofs or how did you aquire them. Could one expect to find any proofs in circulated form? Thanks
Clay Burnett I cracked these out of a proof set and yes there is a small chance you could find one
Was there any scratch or spots on your coins and did you look at it with 7× or 10 × coin loupe?
trust me i spent hours looking i bought over 50 sets and looked for the best coins out of fifty each and this is what i got, i used a 10x loupe and a digital microscope
Thank you wonderful information
Nice coins.
Why would you pay to get these modern proofs graded professionally, just curious?

Ouch maybe my supposedly 69 will
Come back 68 hopefully not less than that. I just sent off 6 coins yesterday to pcgs.
Good luck on your grades
@@garrettscoins227 Thank You
@@garrettscoins227 After hearing from you I think I will fair a little worse I think my 69s are 68 and 67 probably and maybe my 68 is a 67 or 66 now.
There should’ve been more ms70
i agree
Can you see me now? lol
YES!
I see you laura
