Any %'s on Redfield's that cross over to 65?

The one I sent in came back a 63, so I sent it on its way..

    All if not most of these paramount holdered redfield dollars were grossly overgraded IMHO. I bet a majority of them are far worse than a 63. You did good.

    all the Redfield's I've seen on the net have looked at least 1 grade too high.

    Probably close to zero.

    The best I have seen from the "65s" is a MS-64.

    I would keep them in the Paramount holder -- its a cool collectible, and they are worth more in the Paramount holder than, say, a PCGS 63 or 64 holder.

    Probably 1-2% would be MS-65 by today's grading. Most of those have been picked
    over and submitted for crossover. The grading for the collection was rather optimistic
    by at least 1-2 points. Rather then a collection, it was more of a hoard of dollars, by an
    individual that did not trust paper money.Mr Redfield would rather hold silver dollars by the
    the bag fulls. Probably hundreds of bags. The dollars were run thru counting machines which
    unfortunately left distracting marks on coins that would have been gems.
