A 64 coin would have been advertised as a Choice MS63. Above 65 there would have been Choice MS65, GemMS65 etc. There were modifiers to the grade not numbers. Worked okay but there was no internet and you had the coin in hand, usually.

Early 80's. I remember offering Mr. Hall a Morgan in one of these holders in early 1987 or so after the slabbing had begun, and being told that the grades were no longer valid.

Are those flips made of PVC? If so, I would remove the coin and rinse them with acetone.

Should I cut them out and send them in to pcgs for grading and post the results? >>
No they are worth more in those flips. The flips are non PCV flips if I remember the one correctly I use to own. The coin I had would grade the same or higher nowdays.

Which is what leads me to believe the flip is PVC since you wouldn't need a capsule to store a coin in a sealed inert flip.

Need a photo of the reverse.
<< <i>so you are saying all 64's were graded 65 since there was only.. 60/63/65? >>
With my limited exposure back in the day, 60s were 55-62, 63s were 62-65 and 65s were 64-70.
I'm thinking they are from the very late 1970's or early 80's
