Many of these coins exhibit fantastic toning due to the reaction with the materials in the clamshell cases they were sold in. I wish I could properly photograph the toning on this one, it's absolutely stunning in hand.

What do you think of grade?
Thanks for looking

It is hard to see the surfaces of the coin in your images.
This looks to be anywhere between PL65-67.
I can't see any "Hits" or other marks But it is dependant on what the fields are like that will determine the grade
These are stunningly toned coins and I have a couple of PCGS graded ones of these myself that bring me a lot of pleasure

Nice full strike, beautiful toning.
SP65
Too bad about Liz's skin condition.
"Dipping" is not considered cleaning...

These pictures aren't anywhere near the quality I need to get an accurate grade. Sorry guys.
This is in an SP69 holder

I always wondered what ICCS would grade these coins at. I know PCGS NGC and CCCS to give grades all the way up to the 70 mark, but I wanna see how high ICCS goes.

It was the first Sp69 I have ever seen in an ICCS or CCCS holder so I bought it. One of the only times I "bought a holder" but I wanted to see a very nice quality coin for comparative purposes. Plus I thought the price was fair. When I look up the cert.# it comes up but they do not show population numbers beyond SP68. Perhaps I have the only one.....

Less than two years ago, CCCS adopted a more "market grading" style. You now see PF-70 and SP-69 grades on coins that used to be at PF-68 and SP-67 ceiling... I never saw those grades before 2015.

The only MS-70 1-cent ever graded:

It sold for US$13,500 on Teletrade almost a decade ago...
