Grading opinions, please ...

RGL

Anyone care to venture an opinion on how the following coin will grade. (Hint: It is in the green insert slab that dated from Jan. 90 to mid-95, per Conder, and according to seller -- who has a good reputation in this biz -- pre-dated use of CAM/DCAM designations ...). Don't be shy and don't pull any punches, because I have four other dates from same era and lot that nearly are identical and could be regrade candidates.

PR68DCAM. Pretty coin!

Well, I am not a big one in building up suspense ... bought five 1960-64 old green insert PCGS PR-67s from Tom Becker (ex? or is he still? of Bowers & Merena) for the grand total of $10 each. I was the only eBay bidder ... may have made out here, given my well deserved reputation of cherrypicking -- or it is one of those "c" words .. cheapness?

RGL,

I grabbed two old holders from him today myself. Took a shot at a third, but got out-sniped.

Looked, darn nice, didn't they Russ? Surprised others did not catch on ... old green slabs from a "name" seller who likely is underselling them in saying they probably would CAM today.

RGL,

One of mine was a green, the other was the original rattler. The one I lost was also a rattler. I was also suprised that the auctions didn't see more action, but my hunch is that when bidders just see "67" in the title with no "CAM" or "DCAM" they pass on by. The label mania can sometimes work in our favor.

PS: This is the one I lost out on. I really wanted that pup. Bid about double what a 67 would normally bring.

Pssst ... don't tell anyone, Russ, but ... you have to check the images! But, keep this to ourselves!

Ouch, Russ, wish I had seen that JFK myself ... tunnel vision has it drawbacks!
