Cool. A MS70! Congrats. I'd wait 80 days for a 70!

Super! It's a great feeling. I sold my first MS70... got about a $400 premium over MS69 money. It just wasn't worth keeping for that money.

Go ahead, PCGS. Make My Day !

Congrats, I hope yours remains a "70" for more than one day. I'm sure it will, but you never know.... best to check the results post a couple of days in a row.

I think you know what I am referring to (ms70 2004 Silver Eagle).

It is funny that after the apparent clerical error was corrected and posted, and I acknowledged the change in the posted grade no one posted any comment about that happening.

Go figure. Now that I have that off my chest.......I hope you get many more "70's", but not so many that it adversely affects the value of your coins.

Congratulations on the nice grades.

Congrats on winning the PCGS MS70 lottery. I believe, and always will, that PCGS hands out the MS70 grade on a percentage basis for the modern coins. I own PCGS MS69s and defy anyone to show me the different between them and a MS70.

Congrats!

some of the first coins I sent in were moderms, and I was proud that they all came back MS or PR69. Of course that is before I knew almost everything is a 69, and it is rare to get lower and even more rare for 70.

I'll bet it feels like hitting a jackpot!

Congratulations, are the drinks on you !!!

A perfect Flight.

I have some Edisons and L&Cs in for grading now. Would be sweet to pick up a 70 too.

you gonna keep it???????????

I would n frame it, they dont come by often

Congrats!

And I agree with GAT. I sent in a bunch of A.S.E.s a couple of years ago, and hit the PCGS lottery with the 1996 PR70. When I compared it to the PR69s, I couldn't tell the difference (even with a magnifier). How in the world can a grader who is looking at them for a few seconds (8?) assign a 70 over a 69?

The best advice I got was from the forum members to sell it. The pop #s will definitely go up as more people send in the modern stuff, decreasing its value. I put it on eBay and got $2,600 for it.

Let us know what you decide to do with it.
