Is This a Good Percentage?
Hi All
Time for another poll. I recently submitted 2 rolls (forty coins total) of 2010 Silver American Eagles to NGC for grading. Well, my scores are in!
MS68 - 1
MS69 - 35
MS70 - 4
So, my MS70 score comes in at 10%. I feel very lucky that only one was graded less than MS69. Care to compare? I'm just curious to see how I match up to other submissions.
As always, happy collecting and don't forget to fill out your brackets. March Madness has arrived.

2009 SAE Proof
First time posting...Love the topic...Great to be a society member.
I too am very disappointed that the mint will not be producing ASE proofs. I am completely in the dark as to how and why the US mint cannot have enough silver for these coins.
Maybe it?s our job as collectors to help the mint with their silver supply. Someone amongst us (society members) must have some sort of internal ?connection? with the US mint. Here?s what I propose we do:
