How hard is it to get a high grade on a 1943 or 1943-D steel cent?

Like in the MS-67 to MS-70 area. If I submitted it to PCGS.

    PCGS has graded approximately 3300 MS67 P&D mints combined and an additional 150+ MS68's.
  • Coinguy, do you know if they are worth submitting? Do they sell for much?

  • wow! That's a lot but they are kind of hard to find in this grade.

    67s tough but not that uncommon, and usually sell for around $50.

    68s are considerably tougher and probably worth 8-10 times that amount, last time I saw the auction results.
