Quite pleased... a couple got PR-70 grades, which never is an easy task.

I added these to my showcase collection of Canadian small cent special proof strikes. Only the 5 oz pucks are missing, and they are not going to PCGS.

Just a fun set to put together, and protect for the future.

Well done! I agree it is not easy to get PR70. I am EXTREMELY careful when submitting PR coins to PCGS. I mean serious inspection, magnification with bright light and if there is a hint of "something" I don't submit. Most of the coins come back PR69, some PR68. Rarely PR70.

One of my last submissions:

Great to see a couple 70 s out of this set, other than the size of the large cents I thought this was one of the RCM best sets, simple yet elegant. The five oz. other than the finish would round up the series.

Awesome, great looking coin and set. One of the best sets to come out in a long time.

Great looking coins and a terrific PCGS Collector's Showcase set!

I always enjoy seeing a set assembled by a collector who has a passion for the task.

Great job!
