Got Canadian grades today

I decided to send a few coins to CCCS (Canadian Coin Certification Service), an alternative to ICCS, because Louis had a special listed on the CCRS (Canadian Coin Reference Site). The coins arrived in Quebec on Jan 3rd and were in today's mail. Fantastic service from Louis, always promptly answered my emails. Without further ado:

1939 1c MS-63 RED
1939 1c MS-63 RED
1939 1c MS-63 RED
1939 1c MS-63 RED
1939 1c MS-62 RED
1939 1c MS-64 RED

1884 Large Cent AU-50 Obverse #2. *ouch* I thought MS
1896 Large Cent MS-62 Red & Brown. I thought maybe MS-63, but can live with the grade.
1891 SD SL obverse #3 Large Cent MS-62 Trace Red. When I sent this in I just assumed it was the LL LD variety, not thinking to check it out. Needless to say, I am very pleased.

1900 25c EF-40 I thought this might get body bagged, so very happy.

I was hoping for one MS65 with the 1939 cents but considering the value difference in MS64 to MS65, not surprised.

    Congratulations on your grades-are images forthcoming?

    When did this company (CCCS) get formed?; have they been around awhile? You've always been a big proponent of ICCS...

    I will try to image some of them. I believe CCCS formed about 2 years ago.

    Thanks. The coins are a pain in the butt to image through the double flip.

    'kat, I can't see any difference in any of the 6 1939 cents. MS62 RED is a non grade for this coin.

    I really doubt it is a 62... seriously... it can't be.

    CCCS is as good as ICCS. I love the 1900 25C. Thanks for sharing.
