    I filled out the online form and was charged $22. I think @Tyrock mentioned the $16 in error. I never gave $16 a thought while filling out the submission. I was aware the price had been raised.

    Yes, they’ve been opening and closing membership since they first launched in 2007. I waited three years before I was able to join, then membership was shut down again. It’s been like that since.

    I found the email, dated May 9. According to the email a special Grandfathered tier was suppose to be included on the online pdf form, which it wasn’t. Hopefully it won’t be needed.

    So did I.

    That clears it up, thank you. I didn’t remember reading anything about the $16 fee, since now it has been raised to $22. And the “grandfathered in” confused me since there are either members or non members, unless they are separating current members from members admitted after this policy. I understand the concept now but with one question. How many years will these 20 failures per year be extended?

    Do you have a source for this? What does it mean to ne “grandfathered in”? Is that the same thing as being a member before this new policy change?

    Granted the coin on the left is a 67, but as @VKurtB pointed out the furry bits on the under carriage are quite sparse in comparison. I think enough detail is missing to put this coin in the 63-64 category. I also think luster plays more importance to the graders than what you believe.

    A couple of Battle Creek’s I acquired from Skyman a few years ago and an 1883-O bought raw in the 80’s.
