    Please let me know when you list these on Ebay as I need some loser slabs to practice cracking.

    Which service did you use? What did you expect for grades? I sent a nice 1962 and
    a not-so-nice 1960 to ICCS and both received PL-65. I thought PL-66 for the 1962.
    I have some PL in right now at ICCS. Hoping for an ultra heavy cameo on a 1963
    coin. I would send to PCGS but for the cost and the wait time.

    Ah, the notorious "grade compression" of ICCS. That series tops out at PL65, unless you manage to get Brian on one of the 3 days a year he gives out PL66's.

    At least NGC gives Cameo definitions on PL unlike PCGS!

    1968 ICCS PL-65 Nickel, Heavy Cameo is now a NGC PL 63 Cameo.

    Does that answer your question??

    You took a $50++ coin and turned it into a $3 coin. image

    I have never heard of a ICCS coin dropping two grades and a designation. That is a first! image

    I have. The grading companies use different grading standards.
