I would count this as my best submission ever!!!

001 1980 D 10C MS 65

002 1979 D 10C MS 66

003 1994 P 50C MS 67

004 1980 D 25C UNC DETAILS OBV IMPROPERLY CLEANED

005 1986 P 10C MS 67

006 1988 D 10C MS 68 FT

007 1992 P 10C MS 68 FT

It started off slow, if the truth be known I almost didn't submit the 79-D or the 80-D, and given the grades I would have been better off. The Kennedy turned out solid and if plus grades were available on the moderns - I'm certain this one would have warranted it. THe 80-D quarter is puzzling as I'm not sure what the experts are seeing - I can't wait to see it to figure it out. The 86-P Roosevelt was nice and chanced a possible 68 on that one, but I'll settle for the 67 - solid for the year.

1988-D MS 68 FT - Top Pop with this being the 3rd 68 FT and no other coins at the 68 level or higher - pays for this submission probably 5 times over by itself.

1992-P MS 68 FT - Top FT population with this being the second coin graded. There are 4 MS 68 coins and 1 MS 69 coin. This is the icing on the cake and also probably worth 5 times the submission cost.

I can't wait to get them home and re-inspect. Yes. That's the next step in my "agonizing" effort to learn grading. Why did the 79-D and 80-D's do so poorly in relation to the rest of the group. What did I miss - I'm sure their's something... Overall I'll call this one a superb success!

Have a great day all and Happy Collecting!!!
