    I've been promising to TruView these for a while. Thanks to everyone who has helped me put this together, especially Nick and Greattoning. Pretty good eye appeal for the #44 ranked set. ;)

    Even the #1 set won't have that sort of color!!!

    So how does such color happen on a proof coin? From storage in an album? From the boxes they came in 1950-1955?

    Yes...

    Several of these coins came from the cardboard black holders with the plastic windows and from the hard plastic five coin Capital holders. Just need fifty years and the right conditions to get great colors.

    I did score a nice up-grade for my set. See if you can figure out which coin got up-graded.

    Going to guess your '59-D or 1 of the '64's?

    My guess is your 48 went 68, or the 51D got the +.

    Nick, we never heard what you got upgraded?

    Nick's upgrade is easy to spot. It's just another ms68fb of a date you wouldn't ever expect to exist that nice.

    On the other hand I sold a duplicate ms67fb dime that I considered low end, never would have resubmitted to pcgs in a million years. Now I see it being auctioned as a 67+fb (it'll probably sell for 3x what I sold it for). It's going to be a very sad day if I submit the one I kept of that date and it does not upgrade. I'll just avoid the sadness by not resubmitting and also not registering any more coins.

    It always seems to happen. I've lost count of the ones I missed on. Is it rigged?

    Any coin can upgrade or not and + or not. You could take a 67, 67+ and 68 and send them all in and get a different grade on each one. There is no discernable difference between the 3.

    Here's one I'm not sure I've posted: MS67+

    Or, how about this one: Another MS67+ (Came out of a ICG MS68 holder) Not the best of my images, but you get the idea.

    I mean this seriously, if I send that coin in, it comes back 64. That will be some very expensive plastic. .... wonder if it would cross...

    I would give it a 66, on a good day, that reverse is just terrible! I don't mind the obverse so much, but I guess we can agree it's far from a 68 :p

    Hey Nick... Remember years and years ago you told me your "team" knew that those clad dimes never sold on Teletrade for World record prices and I assured you that they all did. :). Wondercoin.

    It just shows once again that nearly any registry set (with a lot of coins in it) can be overthrown as number 1 in a few years time (especially with the right dealer(s) assisting the collector in the pursuit).

    Very nice sets. The clad has the makings for a #2-#3 set after it's done.
    I knew the 1978 had been made in a 4FB. Was looking forward to seeing it on the market.

    I think some of the JHF dimes that sold for high prices were to someone named Rhonda who has now decided to sell her coins and can't get anywhere near what she paid for them. Some have been on ebay for 1.5+ years. I did buy a few former JHF clad dimes for high but reasonable prices when she first posted them. She has a few more I'd like but we never came to agreements on price.

    What seller on eBay are you referring too?

    Well, I may not use the term competition as loosely as Nick as the sets still look like they have a long long way to go to be anywhere Nick's level. I do not believe I see many JHF clad dimes in this set, I guess 84-d, not sure if any others. I wonder what the history is of the 66fb 91-d (which has a newish cert #)? That definitely is very cool! In any case that is one darn beautiful clad set and a super start to a silver set.

    I actually made that 91D about 2 years ago out of a mint set, and the coin looks spectacular. It was originally in an NGC holder as a 66FT. I put it up on eBay after it crossed where it sold about 2 days later.

    I'm confused...

    You made that 91D about 2yrs ago out of a mint set
    It was originally in an NGC holder

    Can you please clarify...

    I found the coin in a 1991 mint set, which I sent to NGC to get certified. It came back ms66FT, I then crossed the coin to Pcgs at the same grade. After that I put the coin up for sale on eBay.

    onlyroosiesonlyroosies Posts: 3,285 ✭✭✭✭

    Paul, I think he means he sent it raw to NGC where it graded 66FT and then crossed it.

    Mitch, I don't see very many of those Teletrade clads in this set. Maybe a couple. I also never doubted your
    word that they did sell. PC sent me an e-mail last June stating my clad set with major varieties was un-beatable.
    that was at that time frame. new pop 1/0's would have to be made to beat my set. My silver set can be beat,
    I don't consider my main 46 - date set to have any challengers at this time taking over the #1 spot. I welcome
    new collectors to the series. The more collectors the fewer coins to go around.

    wondercoinwondercoin Posts: 16,709 ✭✭✭✭✭

    I know you did not doubt me Nick, which is why I said your "team".

    I had 20 pop 1 silver quarters in my set a few years ago and now I have 4. I have little doubt any MS clad dime set would be unbeatable over a five year horizon. The only question I would have is whether one of the "9 figure" or "10 figure" collectors I know would want to pursue the series seriously and spend the money on these dimes instead of something else. That may be a generation away from happening. Just my 2 cents. Wondercoin.

    Ok, time for a picture.

    Just got this one from PCGS grading...pulled it out of my raw set, being curious what it would grade. Other than the hit on the forehead it's as clean as they come. Now I'm wondering how many more like this I have in the raw set?

    I had several more graded, and we'll post those over the next few nights.

    Well, time for another image. This one is just your basic 1955-S MS67, but I love that Green Reverse!!! And, I think they should have + the coin. Although there is a bit of weakness in the strike. Still, clean as it can be.
