May I ask what was price you guys paid for GZ 2K Panda ? I am sure I will not be able to obtain one that low, but it will provide a comparison point for me. Thanks!
After close inspection of my GZ 2000 I think I will pull a "trump" card out and submit to NGC for a "re-grade" along with a few other coins I just recently got back from NGC. Knowing that grading is subjective, I closely looked at this GZ2000 and a G25Y 1990 small date (both 68's), they both look very good to me. I'll admit I'm spoiled towards 69's but also I would not want an under or over graded coin as well so I think this re-grade is justified. We will find out one of two things either I am going blind or I am a decent grader Looking at these two coins in question I just have to send them back for regrades I will post some pics up for public opinion, actually I'm going to post up a "gilt fest" of commemoratives in the next day or so it's going to be "colorful"
Good luck with the regrade. In a few days we saw what happen with my 2000 GZ. I read in kitco is a good buy now. The pf69 are selling for 600 uss in ebay.
Just drop mine to the Ngc dealer to send for conserve and grading . Have to wait 3 months for the result .
Comeaux, do you crack them out of the holder when you resend them ?? I have never resent a coin ,but I do have a couple i feel are candidates,thanks
I have done the regrade, but not sure if it is the best way I didn't crack my 1/10 oz frosted gold panda PCGS MS68, I sent it to NCS as is(they cracked it for me), and in the end NGC grade this as MS69
Hello jc888 ... I have cracked out PCGS, ICG & ANACS before sending to NGC. The ICG 70's (bought very cheaply) graded 69's The only reason I cracked out the PCGS is they refuted my minimum grade of 69 in which that is what the current PCGS grade was, this was when there was a little "tiff" going on between the two companies so NGC returned all of the PCGS coins and then I cracked them all out and resubmitted ... very disappointed they all got a grade lower. I was kind of pissed really. No I don't crack out the NGC coins though ... This is only the second time I submit NGC coins for re-grade and I feel pretty good about it. I typed up a letter as well to describe the reasoning for each coin. Now I just have to wait a few days to see if I made a good call or look like a doofus.
Oh and hey ... thor122 your coins are in "quality contol" as I just checked, I will send you the NGC screenshot. So now they will soon go back to "scheduled for grading" one more time for a day then "finalized/imaged/shipped" so you should have your grades by either tomorrow or Monday. Good luck on your GZ2000 and all others ... I'm anxious for you man !
i have 2 GZ2000 from my good friend Yennus, so Thor if you feel like sharing results it would be greatly appreciated
good luck Comeaux.............. i know Yennus sent you a wonderful GZ2000 , i got 2 from him and they are great, for sure 69,s at least IMHO. so I was mortified when you posted that you got a 68.....glad your sending it back .................grading is subjective for sure ,Im cheering you on bro!
i will. The 2000 gz are in quality control with 2 x 1 oz 1996 sd and ld 2 x 1/2 oz 1996, 2 x 1/2 oz 1997 and 1 x 1/2 oz 1995 all i buy from yennus.
Good luck with those bears . Yennus have a good eyes for the 69 ... I am crossing my fingers for the next couple of months too .
I am thinking of sending mine to NGC too; all bought from our great supplier here, Yennus. You have all our support Thor122. Crossing all fingers and toes for a great score from NGC for you.
