This is random, but I’m a random dude from Ontario, Canada and last month I did a 4 day road trip to SouthBend / Granger, Indiana.

When I told my friends and family we were going to Indiana they asked 1. Are you flying??? Where is that? and 2. Why?

My original intention was to explore more of Michigan but decided to make my base in Indiana and road trip around. I truly enjoyed it so much and every one from restaurants, to stores, to random people in Target were so welcoming and nice telling me about the local scenes.

While we did see a lot of Southwest Michigan and took the South Shore Train (10/10 experience and so handy) to Chicago for a day, we spent a lot of time in and around the SouthBend area as well and it felt just like home.

I am sure I have vacation goggles and my experience isn’t an example of every day life, but I just wanted to show
my appreciation for y’all.

I’m not the one to usually go back to the same spot twice (I’m trying to see more states to knock them off my visit list 😂) but I can say i know I will be back again one day to Indiana for sure.

I don’t know why I am making this post, but hope it made you smile and cheers!

Hey all,

I understand my question isn’t necessarily related to Canadian Coins, however, I was hoping some Canadians can recommend where one might recommend for World Coin grading?

I understand and trust ICCS for Canadian Coins, and I know they do world coins as well- but would any of you still use them for British, Straits Settlement, German, Australian, American, etc?

Just wanting to see if anyone has experience in either sending their coins to ICCS or NGC/ PCGS/ etc and how it works and if it was worth it.

I just feel like maybe using a service other than ICCS might be better for “worldwide appeal” as they may not be as known around the world.

Thanks all in advance, i’ve done a bit of research on my own of course, but was just hoping to see some up to date experiences from people here :)
