These were dropped off at NYINC and shipped back to me today, the economy submission may be there a while though. Better pics to follow when they arrive and I can reimage with the new camera.
1723 SSC G.BRITAIN ESC-1177 1S VF 30 - currently the finest graded at NGC belive it or not, because it's the only one graded.It's a pretty tough variety with the French Arms at date. Grade as expected.
1797 G.BRITAIN P-1095 BRONZED PATTERN PENNY PF 63 BN - another that is currently the finest graded and a little tougher variety. I don't have a good pic of this so will wait until it gets back. I actually thought this would come back with a details holder due to excessive surface hairlines so this is a pleasant surprise.
1787 G.BRITAIN ESC-1640 PATTERN 6P PF 55 - the only other piece graded at NGC is a 62 so these aren't exactly common. Another surprise as I had expected this to grade PF45-50. These are very similar to the currency issue of 1787 but with a border of dots on both obverse and reverse.
