If I had the proverbial nickel for each time I got everything packaged and ready to go....

I would be a wealthy man and able to but that barber proof dime and quarter I need. although my normal goof is to get the coins in the package and forget the invoice...or get the invoice in and forget the coins...talk about being in a hurry...It really is that feeling of anticipation you get to see the results of the grading, I'm with the others here who have posted concerning their setting on pins and needles waiting, and waiting, and waiting...even it is only ten days, they seem like a year. I fancy that my reason for this anticipation is my need for self gratification, in that I correctly pre-graded the coins that I sent in, and those wonderful people at NGC have validated my skills, and sent me back all those nice Pr-70's and Ms-68's for my continueing Lincoln Mem. sets. but taking all that into account....If you really want to talk about anticipation; put yourself in my place of having 120+ Lincoln's in for pre-screen and the knowledge that there is no set time limit for grading...Oh the pain of it. but it will all be better when I get to see those magic numbers appear on the web site, that shows my coins and their grades. And even better, their on the way home to little ole me.
