1940 D/D VP-002, MS-65, 1 of 2 in Registry at 65 and 1 of 6 total in Registry. cloud9.gif (this was posted last month prior to grade results)
Congrats! That's excellent thumbsup2.gif Usually people post pop numbers like 2/0 meaning 2 in grade 65 with none higher. That would be the case if the other for are 64 or lower. Also, typically people say in the Pop(ulation)/Census since the Registry is voluntary and missing many graded coins. Just FYI smile.gif

PCGS has been observed to be more lenient on cleaned coins than NGC so you might try them.

rbrown4---- Nice grades on the first two. Sorry about the 32S. However, I agree with either trying PCGS or waiting awhile and resubmitting to NGC.

 

Another little story. I had a 32S in Ch Au. Paid 60 bucks for it as a kid. Had that coin for years and years. Finally awhile back I did submit it to NGC for grading. I too got a BB for cleaning. I could not believe it was so. I bet I turned it upside down trying to find those hairlines that I knew had to be there somewhere. Sure enough---one day I had the coin in direct sunlight. Tilted it a certain way. Hairlines were indeed there. Felt sooooo stupid. Try various light sources and tilt it a hundred different ways---at various angles.

 

One of the reasons that I tell folks about my mistakes---though they are few [ Ha! Ha! ] is to not prejudge NGC. Those folks are very good. Most of the time---after I look for awhile---I have found that NGC was indeed correct. After a period of years, one does get better. Hard to beat a guy at his own game. Bob [supertooth]

Thanks everyone for the positive feeback and comments, it is very much appreciated.

 

I figured that I would just add to the original post with the newly graded coins. Less posts running around that way.

I wasn't expecting a MS-65 out of this Gettysburg Commemorative but that is what the status showed as of today.

 

Got a 66 on my Texas commemorative as well but I do not currently have a picture of it.

Just an end result of the efforts of my father over the years. It is truly amazing and I am so blessed to be able to become a part of it and to also be able to share and gain such insight from all of you out there. I have probably said this before but this is a journey that is unmatched by any other.

 

Thanks and Regards,

 

Rey

1787 Fugio Cent , States United, 4 Cinquefoils after Date, Pointed Rays, BN, XF-40.

 

And I was worried about it being real, my dad had it marked in his Red Book as genuine but after all the stories I have heard.....
