I submitted 4 coins during the crossover special and got my coins back last week:
1878-S $1 NGC MS-65- Upgraded to MS-65+
1878 8TF $1 NGC MS-63- Crossed to MS-63
1878- CC $1 NGC MS-63- Upgraded to MS-64
1944-P 10c NGC MS-65 FB- Upgraded to MS-66 FB (thought there was a chance of 67FB)
I felt that 3 of my coins in my 1878 Morgan Dollar set were undergraded so I submitted those. I found a nicely toned 1944-P NGC MS-65FB 10c to add to my collection (after looking for over a year) and I thought it should upgrade to 66FB and maybe 67FB. 3 months later, I own 2 more 1944-P MS-66FB coins, ha.
It took 45+ business days to get the coins graded, but I'm happy with my results. I didn't get a full point jump on my 78-S or a 2 point jump on my 44-P, so I didn't get a small payday but made out well. My friend who piggybacked among with me didn't fare well at all.

Nice. The 1878-S raw could have gone 66.

Like that dime!
Thanks all -@AUandAG @oih82w8
@Wabbit2313- Yeah, I thought it had a 50/50 chance of going 66. I think the chatter in the field on the obverse distracted the graders cause it is mirror-like.
@georgiacop50- Thanks, it took me over a year to find a FB toned 44-P I liked...and they are hard to find attractively toned. I thought this had a stronger chance of going 67FB than the 78-S had going 66.
If you see random dark streaks in the pictures, that's from my busted iPhone.
Sweet, congrats !!!
Very nice... You did well... good eye for upgrades. I like that '78 CC. Cheers, RickO
