Thank you for Choosing Us! 2025 S *PROOF* ALTHEA GIBSON Quarter -DCAM & UNC- US MINT Coin -PRESALE 2-27 You will receive: One Althea Gibson American Women Quarter Proof Coin minted at the United States Mint in San Francisco. Unlike circulating coins, proof coins display brilliant backgrounds, with frosted, sculpted foregrounds. Proof coins receive the highest quality strike possible and can be distinguished by their sharpness of detail and brilliant, mirror-like surface. These mirror-like finishes are called Cameo or Deep Cameo. Coins are taken from United States Mint original packaging, carefully placed with gloves in 2×2 Cowens or Guardian flip holders, and shipped protected in strong plain envelopes. About: Althea Gibson was a trailblazing multi-sport athlete who accomplished an impressive list of firsts throughout her athletic career. As the first black athlete to break the color barrier at the highest level in tennis, Gibson won 11 Grand Slam titles by the end of the 1950s, including multiple championships at Wimbledon, the U.S. Open, and the French Open in both singles and doubles. She was voted the 1958 Female Athlete of the Year by the Associated Press, and was inducted into the International Tennis Hall of Fame and the International Womens Sports Hall of Fame. Not content with one sport, she also became the first Black player to compete in the Womens Professional Golf Tour.* *United States coin images [and text] from the United States Mint. About Us Roaming Revs are women clergy who attempt to sell coins and curiosa found, made, or purchased "on the journey" from regular folks and/or small businesses. We do this in order to support everyone's work and ability to earn an income. Please visit our store and follow us for amazing items as we find them! Shipping Policy We ship on regular business days. Orders placed on weekends or holidays will be shipped on the next business day. Orders over $200 require signature on delivery. eBay Standard Envelope Service: Like many eBay sellers we ship many coin orders (three or less coins weighing under three ounces) in 2x2 flips using via United States Postal Service (USPS) First-Class mail using eBay Standard Envelope labels. You need to use eBay’s website to track these envelopes. These envelopes also travel through the USPS First Class network slowly. As well, note that USPS may also be slow in updating tracking information to the eBay website. High Speed Sorters: The USPS First-Class mailing system by default processes standard envelopes through high-speed sorters. This can, and does, damage coins. It also can cause other shipping issues, such as delayed delivery. If you DO NOT wish your coins to go through high-speed sorters, you can add a small additional fee ($0.48) to your purchase and we will forward this payment to the USPS for your item as a service for our customers. Your order will not be run through high-speed postal sorters while still benefiting from eBay Envelope's tracking service. This method is highly recommended by us AND meets all of the USPS requirements for sending coins though their system. You will receive your coins on-time and in great shape! Equally important is that we strongly believe in paying fair share for our Postal Worker's work. If you wish this service for your order, choose "First Class" shipping at checkout. Combined Shipping Discount: We cheerfully Combine Shipping charges for all the items in your shopping cart at the time of purchase. This is done automatically for you in eBay's checkout procedure. If you have further questions, please message me BEFORE checkout. Once an item or invoice is paid, we can no longer offer a Combined Shipping discount. Combined shipping is NOT available on items that include free shipping except in larger quantities. International Shipping: We will ship allowed items internationally and only through eBay International Shipping. There is no free option for International shipping.
