Rare Ikes & More PCGS GEMS

My customers will be happy to hear that I finally got a few reports this week after a long dry spell from PCGS. Among many other great dimes, I have a 1995 D Roosevelt PCGS MS67FB (sold). They will have to add a line in the POP report as this is the first and only FB for that year/mint. There was a group of 1972 P Ikes on one report. I have three type 1 MS65 and two type 2 MS65 (exceedingly rare!) along with some MS64's. There are many new Memorial cents along with some other coins on their way from PCGS currently. They are all listed (with prices...no POR's) on my website. If interested in something, email me at telecoin@adelphia.net. My website address is www.telecoin.bizland.com I have hundreds of coins in for grading with more going in weekly and may be adding new coins to my site at any time.

Edited to say: The two MS65 type 2 Ikes are "sale pending". I will still take back-up offers in case the deal doesn't go through. The type 1 Ikes are still available as are the MS63 and MS64 type 2's.

    Cool! Wow, those are some pretty impressive coins in your picture gallery! MS67 1966 and 1967 Halves! Yeesh! An ms69 85-d cent! Wow! Gosh, what a modern collection you'd have if you kept them all!

    Those two Kennedies were in the same submission batch. Makes me wonder if they are mislabeled mechanical errors for SMS coins?

    Braddick,
    They were definitely all regular (business strike) coins. On that invoice (along wiith the 1966 MS67) I received three 1967 halves in MS67 (none have been made since). The 1966 was then (and still is) a POP 2 coin. There is one MS68 in that date, and I doubt if another of that quality will be found (I've never seen it in person). As many people know from experience, you are far more likely to get a SMS designation on a business strike than the other way around. That goes for all denominations.

    Sound good. If anyone would know, looking at the coins in hand if they were business strikes vs SMS's, it is you Jamey. If you (and PCGS!) say they're not SMS- then they're not SMSs.

    Edited to add: When you received word on that invoice you must have screamed for joy!
