    Submitting Uncirculated Sets
    Hello Everyone, 
    I would like to start submitting my Canadian Uncirculated Sets and I was wondering if there is a certain way they need to be sent in. The reason I ask is because if one was to cut the coins out of the cellophane wrap and send them in to NGC in plastic flips then how would they know that the coins came from a set and not from pocket change? How do you make sure that the term "Uncirculated Set Issue" gets on the label?
    Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

    I know everyone is busy, so thank you very much for taking time to look at my latest creation.
    A special thank you to Thane. I will be adding the new Laughing Gull pic as soon as I stop writing this.
    Always a good thing when a 41 year old man can feel like 10 again!
    Thanks again,
    Brett

    Rmw,
    Like I said in my past post I have had 5 mis-labeling issues in the past 4 orders. That's not saying anything about the 10 or so before that.
    I have added a pic of two coins that were in the same order as the turned around maundy coins. NGC labeled both these coins 1960 Shilling Scottish Crest. Can you find the screw up? It's kind of like "where's Waldo", but A LOT EASIER!
    Let me know if you can beat the pros.

    Hello everyone, 
    I have added 4 pics of a 2006 Great Britain Maundy set I just received in my latest order.  Look at the cert. #'s. YES, they are in a row. Now look at the coins.  YES, they face front-back-front-back.  Who would do this?  Even a non-collector must know this looks stupid.  Maybe the monkeys in the slab room thinks it's funny.

    DAYS OF THE PAST, THE BEAR HAS ALWAYS BEEN THE CUSTOMER.
    NOW, ALL OF THE SUDDEN, THE BEAR IS THE BIG COMPANIES THAT HAVE THE CUSTOMER CORNERED BECAUSE OF SERVICE OR LACK THERE OF.
    OR BECAUSE OF SPECIAL CONNECTIONS THAT OFFERES SPECIAL LABELS OR TURN-AROUND TIMES FOR THOSE "BIG DEALERS".
    MAYBE SITTING IN THE CLOSET SUCKING YOUR THUMB IS YOUR WAY OF DEALING WITH DISGUSTING FEES, SERVICE, AND EGOTISTICAL BEHAVIOR. HOWEVER, THAT DOESN'T WORK FOR ME.
