    The keyboard they use to print labels only contains a 7 and a 0.
    When in doubt, don't.

    they resubmitted all those 65's, 66's, 67's, 68's and 69's (to themselves) and it's the darndest thing......

  • I believe that they will only slab perfect coins. All others get Body Bagged.

    SGS Grader Manual states:

    1. Evaluate coin.
    2. If not a 70 bobdybag.
    3. If a bodybag re-evaluate coin and assign the minimum of a grade of 70 or 100 (whichever is less).
    4. Repeat.

    Remember grading is subjective and in their little part of the world everything is perfect.

    I had a post a couple of weeks ago about a complete Lincoln collection I bought.
    The seller had written on the back of the pages the condition and TPGs.
    There were about 6 or 7 SGS Lincolns, all graded MS70.
    Must be the only label they stock.

    I collect all 20th century series except gold including those series that ended there.
