Well, here's the rest of the story (most of it anyway)

This submission was actually 3 submissions in one as 2 of the coins which were early dates were NGC MS65 crossovers.
The first of the crossovers- 1875D crossed over at MS65 and is a top pop at PCGS
The second one is not back yet but I am almost positive it will come home in a 64 slab (let's hope), it is an 1885A.

Here's the other 14:
Date (expected grade) PCGS Grade

1892A (MS64) MS66 Erstabschlag woohoo
1901F (MS64) MS62 ouch! (top pop @ PCGS anyway!) image
1903A (MS65) MS65
1904A (MS65) MS65 top pop @ PCGS
1905A (MS64) MS65 top pop @ PCGS
1906D (MS64) MS63 #*&%
1908D (MS64) MS64
1910J (MS63) MS64 top pop @ PCGS
1911E (MS65) MS66 top pop @ PCGS
1914A (MS64) MS64
1914G (MS65) MS64
1915A (MS65) MS65
1915D (MS64) MS65
1915J (MS63) MS62 #$%&* (needs a serious upgrade)

Most of these were nicely toned. Here are a few of the more notable grades:

Hey, I can't complain- no BB's and 6 top pops!!
The 1901F and the 1910J were the toughest dates so I am pretty happy about those as well as the 2 MS66's especially the 1892A Erstabschlag!

    I have some going up on E-Bay in the next month or so. Have a few in old fattie holders in MS67!
    It is not exactly cheating, I prefer to consider it creative problem solving!!!

    Thanks Rick! I have something like 24 now and there's 192 total dates and mints from 1873-1916, although, I think I am nearing 40% on my early date set and 50% on the later date set- so I have quite a long way to go and no hope of ever getting all of them. Some of the dates and mints in the 1880's and 1890's and almost all the J (Hamburg) mints are really tough to find in decent condition or they're outrageously expensive- if you can find them.
