  I'd be interested in any recent results myself. I have a blazing 1965 Kennedy business strike I want to submit, but I'm worried the graders will cop out and stick it in an SMS holder.

  and a really nice 1967 that came back SMS MS68 (had some neat color)

  I have a stack of non SMS that have SMS on the holder.
  
  I quit sending any 65-67 MS coins

  I wonder why the graders have such a hard time telling the difference between sms and nonsms coins?

  I did not have *good* luck with my sms lincolns, but received some decent grades on Jeffs, and Roosevelts.

  I know Bubblehead sent in a bunch of 1967 Quarters all came back in SMS slabs, I had a few 1965 Quarters that also came back in SMS slabs.

  It is not exactly cheating, I prefer to consider it creative problem solving!!!

  I recently sent in my 65SMS 'struck thru' Kennedy. I bet it comes back MS because an SMS would bring more value..

  This did come back MS
  
  Anything you send in that's 65 or better is almost guaranteed to come back SMS!
