Here's what posted today in pretty quick time for an economy submission through the holidays and early show schedule. I had posted my estimates in another thread back around Christmas, that's what's highlighted.
LINE # CERT # COIN DATE DENOMINATION VARIETY COUNTRY GRADE
1 21844425 1865 3CN USA MS62 should holder at MS61-63. strong clash with nice color for a 3-cent.
2 21844426 1938 5C USA PR65 an NTC PR66 crackout with wonderful rainbow tone but some spotting that should limit the grade to PR65.
3 21844427 1962 5C USA PR67 intense tone, a gift last F.U.N. from TBT. if it isn't bagged it should holder at PR67.
4 21844428 1971 5C USA MS65FS clean and sharply struck, MS66FS.
5 21844429 1916 10C Mercury USA MS62FB a nice first year issue that i think was dipped. the reverse is awesomely struck. MS63FB.
6 21844430 1956 50C Type 1 USA PR65 an undesignated ICG PR68 crackout that should hold the grade.
7 21844431 1887 S$1 USA MS62 this is my neighbors coin. the obverse is heavily toned with rainbow fields, the reverse white. AU58.
8 21844432 1976-D $1 Type 1 USA MS65 a mint set coin that's clean with nice tone, it's for my set. MS65 with a shot at MS66.
9 21844433 1978 $1 USA MS64 a poptopsruss $7 ANA special!!! great tone and clean, also for my set. MS66.

Overall I'd have to say that PCGS isn't necessarily grading as tight as many have said lately. What I got is close enough to what I thought that I'm not upset about the differences on the 1978 Ike and the Franklin. Hey, when I miss I miss big!!!!!
What is kind of strange is the ressurgence of the seldom seen MS62 grade and my neighbors coin snagging something higher than AU. He'll be tickled pink!! I'll try to get some pictures when they come home.

is that a Marty Hoard type nickel?
i'm not sure, but i think it might be. if you remember the 2004 F.U.N. Show, one of the B's---either GSAGuy or now i'm thinking TBT----had a ziplock bag full of coins still in the mint cello they were clipped from. we bumped into each other on the floor and he dipped in the bag and gave me one, a two-toned beauty that i showed to several people and sat on till now. everyone assured me it would be graded and slabbed, they were right.

Just like my 1980D Jefferson nickel. What are they looking for???
