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.....

Still never seen an ICCS in anything over 68.

On regular circulating coins, I don't ever remember a PCGS ms70

Many subscribe to the notion that owning the highest graded modern coin is a recipe for disaster (as a few more will eventually be graded, thereby driving the price way down).
I tend to agree.

I tend to agree. You're probably right in this case. My LCS has a basket of these clamshells in their original sleeves along with the '72s for 15 dollars. That's double the silver value but I've still plucked out a couple higher grade examples with very attractive toning and didn't mind paying the 15 bucks. with over 1 million minted, I'm sure there has to be a few more top pop coins out there
