I just got these in hand, perhaps overgraded. Very pleasing especially last one with mintage of 240. 1893 SWISS SHOOTING R-225b, AE, 45mm BERN - BIEL FEST MS 63 BN 1863 SWISS SHOOTING R-947b, WM, 52mm NEUCHATEL -CHAUX-D FEST MS 62 1895 SWISS SHOOTING R-1756d, AE, 45mm ZURICH - WINTERTH FEST MS 66 1901 SWISS SHOOTING R-879b, AR, 45mm LUZERN FEST MS 64 1887 SWISS SHOOTING R-628b, AR, 45mm GENEVE FEST MS 64 1898 SWISS SHOOTING R-970e, AE, 45mm NEUCHATEL FEST MS 64 1898 SWISS SHOOTING R-970c, AR, 45mm NEUCHATEL FEST MS 64 1897 SWISS SHOOTING R-1524a, AR, 38mm URI - ALTDORF FEST MS 64
Zohar, I looked them all over very carefully and I don't feel that any of them are overgraded. Your R#1756d (1985 Winterthur) is a beauty and deserves the MS66. I have a 1756b that I felt merited a MS65 but NGC called it MS62. Your R#879b (1901 Luzern) is as nice as mine, but mine graded MS-65. Your's is toned while mine is not. Did they deduct a point for toning? Here's mine for reference... Beautiful medals Z, thanks for posting the photos!
congratulation Zohar. Swiss shooting medals are such fine works of art and these that you have are top of class.
