For the past few months, I have been trying to get my collection better organized. It needed it, plus my wife and I are doing some estate planning. In doing so, I have been working at getting all of the valuable coins into PCGS holders. Here are three pretty nice varieties. I have owned all of them in their older PCGS holders (no varieties noted) since before 2007.  |

Sweet coins!
When resubmitting to get the varieties recognized (now that PCGS is getting better at Cdn varieties) did you break them out and re-submit straight out or just submit as a reassessment?

Submitted in the old PCGS holders as a re-holder with variety attribution. They were not re-graded or reconsidered. The 1881-H is the highest 1881-H graded by PCGS period. I bought it out of the Prof. Wayne Palmer Collection in 2004. As a bonus, it had all the obverse legends doubled before anybody cared about that. I would have bought it as a condition rarity, even if it were not DDO. |

A few people have me beat on this coin, or that coin. I am waiting to see if anyone can beat the entire set. Possible, but very difficult.

Love the look of the 1881-H DDO in the middle. How much squash could a Sasquatch squash if a Sasquatch would squash squash? Download and read: Grading the graders Costly TPG ineptitude and No FG Kennedy halveshttps://ln5.sync.com/dl/7ca91bdd0/w...i3b-rbj9fir2 |

BTW, all three of these coins are lighter, with more red, than shown in the opening photo, which was just a quick snap with my cellphone. For example, here is a more accurate photo of the 1941 NF cent.  |

That. Looks. Beautiful.  And the 1941 looks like the darkest in the picture, so does that mean the other two are even more red? |
