Does anyone know what the oldest dated coin grading MS70 is? either NGC or PCGS or even ANACS?

I am talking about regular issue coins. I do not believe that there is a single 19th century coin grading MS70 yet--i do know of some MS69's however. I would like to know the oldest dated MS 70 cent,nickel,dime,quarter,half dollar and even silver dollar. Is there access to info like this at pcgs or ngc? Thanks, Bob

I would also like to know that. Neat question. It could be obtained by researching the pop reports.

I don't believe that any of the services gave a MS-70 prior to the 1983 Olympic commem. Not sure about the proofs or specimen strikes.

It is easy enough to check the NGC Pops, just time consuming.

Good question - I've always wondered if there are any PCGS MS70 graded Morgans.

No one remembers that at one time PCGS slabbed a 1963 Lincoln as PF70 (DCAM?)?

and it would be interesting to know what the 1st 70 was...... pretty cool having a "first slab" 70 from pcgs...

The question pertained to MS70's and not proofs.

Here you go, there was a thread across the street on this topic.

I have a 1964 quarter. Today would grade PF69 Cameo

Back in the 1980 there was only 65,67,70 and ANACS photo certs.

This coin was graded PF67/70 obverse/reverse this first and last time I or anyone had seena 70 coin.

Regular issue mint state? Probably 2003 (a Lincoln). Don't be surprised if
a couple cents from the late-'80's Denver mint don't turn up in 70 though.

As a rule of thumb regular issue coins are extremely scarce even in MS-67.

FYI:To date PCGS has not graded any Morgans MS70 but they have graded 10 Morgans in MS69.
