These aren't back yet, but I called NGC yesterday, got grades, and were told they shipped yesterday... they were received 4/12, shipped 4/30... not bad at all.
1978-S: PF66RB You can really see the contrast here, so I was hoping for CAM. Can't really complain about the technical grade, as I didn't look for hairlines, etc.
1968-S: PF67RB Hoping for a star on this one... but I'll take it!
1962: PF65BN and PF66BN Now, since these were both on the same line, I don't remember which is which. I also don't remember which obverse goes with which reverse
(I think I'm right with these pics). I was very pleased with these grades--there are some dull brown patches that I was hoping wouldn't be called corrosion (didn't look like it to me, but others mentioned it). Anyway, I love the color on these bad boys.
1976-S: PF64RB CAM This one kind of hurt. Awesome electric blue toning and cracked from a proof set since the other coins were spotted. I expected a higher technical grade, and possibly a DCAM, since the reverse is clear. Anyhoo, the coin is awesome.
So, no stars, but no bodybags either. Can't say I'm not pleased

Nice coins Jeremy! Thanks for sharing, now I have to go look at some modern proof sets!

Fact is, they do tone that way. I've seen a zillion. Good job!

<< <i>Oh, but to quote some around here "Those are AT, cents don't tone that way".
Aren't all toned coins AT?

Yes. Until they get graded.
