I didn't want to send them all in to have this one held back for some unforeseen reason. I was advised that the real value is keeping this particular set together. So, you have a complete 1936 proof set? I don't think it's possible to have sequential cert numbers, first I've heard of it actually. Typically, the individual values are greater than the whole. I also don't think a collector buying "the set" will care about sequential number. JMHO Lincoln Cent Lover! VERDI-CARE™ INVENTOR https://verdi.care/ Report this Post to the Staff
MoreOrLess New Member United States 9 Posts	Posted 08/16/2023 4:33 pm I received an email from PCGS that if you list coins in order on their application, they will receive sequential certification numbers. I plan not to submit any other coins on the application. I tend to agree that individual values would probably total greater than the whole. That's why I was initially considering restoration for this and a few of the other coins in the set. However, professional feedback I received recently thought it might be more appropriate to keep this set together. Edited by MoreOrLess 08/16/2023 4:34 pm Report this Post to the Staff

The dollar and medal from my PCGS graded 2015 Eisenhower C&C have sequential numbers. My PCGS graded 1976-D Variety 1 and 2 Ikes also have sequential numbers.

MoreOrLess New Member United States 9 Posts	Posted 10/31/2023 2:36 pm Hello again. It has been a couple of months since I posted this topic. Since many of you were so kind to offer your opinion as to whether the "patina" on the reverse would keep this coin from being graded, I figured I would show you the results. Hopefully, you will find it interesting and possibly helpful. Report this Post to the Staff

MoreOrLess New Member United States 9 Posts	Posted 10/31/2023 4:23 pm Thanks. The coin looks much better in one's hand than its close up photos would lead you to believe. It still has a lot of its red luster. However, it's understandable why it was deemed RB given the effect of it being within a cardboard holder for so long. Report this Post to the Staff
