  4. Awwwww......The joys of fatherhood ....Mine told me that she was going to sell my collection when I die................So what do I do...I told her that when I 'm old... and died... ....Its all going in the coffin with me..... And she was like.....
  5. They are great looking coins .....I have three of the 1962 2 Kronur in proof 66 and two others in 63 and 64. and the 58 5 Aurar in 63 RB as well as the 54 25 Aurar in 64 and one raw one which might grade a 65 cameo or up . I don't have any 1 Eyrir from the Republic era Do you still have the coins and if so I would be interested in buying all the 1 eyrir 5 Aurar and the 25 Aurar from you if your willing to sell them. But the 1957 1 eyrir and the 5 Aurar really caught my eye.... Please let me know
  6. Congrats...on your new coin .......
  7. I have been in the same boat a few times in the past and now the present with some gold coins which the dealers are asking away above what they are worth and in some cases I can buy 1/2 ounce gold coins for what they want for the 1/4 ounce coin and believe me when I tell you that these coins are not anything special .......
  8. I did not get my coins back from NGC.....They just got them yesterday ...It took U.S. Post Office 13 day to deliver my coins to NGC when it should have only taken 3 days to 5 days tops and I payed them $ 27.00 to mail them to NGC
  9. They received my submission Today ....WhooHoooo.....It only took 13 days to get there....3 to 5 days my AS*....
  10. Wow ....That's a real beautiful coin ...Love the luster. This series has always been a favorite on mine.
  11. Phewww.....That's a relieve ...Well for me any way.
  12. I had a few coins that was mailed or went in to a California usps faculty with a tracking number on may 9th and didn't move for nearly two weeks with out any more info until today May 22nd when it show up as being out for delivery ...I know it stinks
  13. I just sent in a bunch of coins yesterday and I just read this now.....Oh boy I don't think I can wait that long maybe I should have them mailed express over night if that will make a difference. I'm going to have to call NGC to ask them.
  14. Thank you.....I do believe I have a good eye for these coins since I have looked at so many of them I'm at the point were my eyes cant stand looking at them anymore..... I will post the result of the submission when They are sent back and maybe I'll send in the rest of them 20-25 coins afterward. what coins to you have I would like to see some pictures of them if you have the time.
  15. Thank you Gary....Well I have to thank..... Uncle Sam for the help with that nice check he sent me a few weeks ago... Good luck with your submission as well ....May the grading Gods be with you.
  16. I understand that feeling of coming close to competition and then completing the series that gives me a good feeling but then a touch of sadness that stir my soul right to the core as if I don't want it to ever end...I know I'm a bit dramatic about it. I think I'm a bit obsessive about my collection always searching for a higher grade coin....So I guess my Icelandic collection will never be complete ...........
  17. Well For the past few months I have been pondering on sending in the Icelandic coins I have been collecting for the past 15 years from the Republic era from 1946 to 1970's and being that modern tier from 1955 to date is $5 dollars cheaper I decided to mail in 21 coins for grading....Mostly 5 Aurar's and 1 Krona's with two 2 Kronurs and as well as four proof coins....Well off to the post office.
  18. Thank you Lisa Best Regards and stay safe.....
  19. What do I do since the online printable submission forms only have 15 spaces for coins to be submitted while I may have as many as 30 coins. Please Help Thank You
