Dont be thinking outside the box yet....

Cuz as of this morning they are still in the box. My submission was received by NGC on monday Feb 13. This morning I checked the status of my order. They are "Received". 21 calandar days into thier grading odessey (15 business days) and they have yet to see the light of day, let alone the lamp of a grader. So I am afraid that those who guessed early to mid March in my contest only have two chances of winning... slim (chance) and no (chance). Still not too late for anybody else to venture a guess and perhaps win a Silver Eagle.

News Flash...

This morning 3/7/06 I received good news and bad news.

The good news is my coins are "Scheduled for Grading"

The bad news my 1832 Bust Half lost 100 years and now is a 1932 Half... whats a hundred years between friends. (I called and had them change it back to an 1832 like it is supposed to be)
