I went through every one of my coins and selected five that I thought were legitimate upgrade candidates. Two 68s and three 69s.
Lines one through three were all holdered 68DCAM. Only one of the 1970's was actually an upgrade candidate. The other is a solid 68, but I wanted it there to compare with the one that I think should be a 69. They are visibly dramatically different.
Lines four through six were 69s that I thought had a shot at 70.
Not complaining. Fact is, it's tough to tell when trying to evaluate the coins in the slabs. Was worth a shot.

My 1996-D Kennedy came back a MS67. I picked it out of a mint set.
