So, its not actually MS-69 even though PCGS says it is? (View Post)

Originally I was thinking Mint State, but no need to be too restrictive. I'm mainly wondering if anything "non-modern" exists in MS-70, or PR-70 for that matter. Especially pre-20th century. (View Post)

Reading through the Stacks auction description there are a couple of other interesting tidbits: 1) its the only 18th century coin graded MS-69, and 2) its the only large cent graded MS-69. (View Post)

AFAIK, the earliest MS-69 U.S. coin is a 1793 Wreath Cent: https://auctions.stacksbowers.com/lots/view/3-2EPGR/1793-wreath-cent-s-9-rarity-2-noyes-die-state-a-b-intermediate-die-state-breen-die-state… (View Post)

1839-D quarter eagles are certainly very tough. I occasionally follow them on various auctions since I'm slowly putting together an 1839 mint set. Yours is very nice. (View Post)
