Put together this quick video—check it out! I’d love to hear your thoughts. Most of the coins featured here will likely be part of my second PCGS submission. I’ll only be submitting CAC-stickered graded coins to see if they upgrade, since the CAC sticker already serves as a second opinion that they’re well-graded pieces.

Looking for tips on Grading more modern WQ's & any experiences submitting CAC'd Pieces for Reconsideration.
Raw coins.
73D, MS66+ hit on Eagles leg. But if the luster is strong enough 67+.
74D, MS66/67 haze may hold it back. If you feel confident there are no hits under the haze give it a bath in MS70.
47, MS66/67+ negative toning, again give it a bath if clean underneath.
49D, MS66/67 repeat.
44S, MS66/+
47S, MS66
47P, MS65
49P, MS65
50S, Details, scratch.
Would be better if you could take hi-res images for better guesses.
Also bit better photo for the 1949-D would you consider this a RPM? To add a Variety Attribution to?
1944-S
1947-D
1949-D
1973-D NOTE That IS not a scratch on the face, its dust I realized after photographing
1974-D
Some of the pics are too dark, blurry, or just not fully lit. Along with mix-matched photos.
Not to be a pain but work on the lighting. You have time, I don't see any reason for rushing this.
My second opinion is worse than the first but again might just be bad lighting.
I fixed the order
Also, to answer your question on post 64 grading. They are tough, one hit and 66 is max. unless very clean or positive toning.
Some of my tuition payments all MS66.
Just sent the 3 Graded ones in for Reconsideration and decided on only submitting the 73-D,49-D & 44-S
Best of luck and be sure to post your results.
I submitted an order today but nothing to get too excited about. Just cleaned out the bottom of my saved coins that were wasting flip space. The bulk of them went to the Coinstar and about 30 for grading, hoping for a couple of 7s.
The proverbial throw a bunch of shit on the wall and hope something sticks.
But now I’m clean and ready to begin the hunt again.
