I think you are mixing up Proof and MS. Yeah there are plenty of PF68 & PF69. But I don;t think you'll find many MS grades that high.
Wally, where are you getting those prices ? The best I can find for MS60 is $575 and $2500 - $2600 for MS63.
Here's the same picture you posted of the slabbed example. Look at both sides of the 7, see the edges of the underlying 6. Now look at the 1 and...
Sure, buy them from an honest dealer.
Not defending them in the least, but they are minted at West Point.

Can a coin change after it is slabbed - absolutely. For instance the half dollar mentioned - odds are that the coin was dipped immediately before...

I'd say AU50, and I don't think it's the O/D either.
Be extremely leary of buying "unopened" box sets. Personally, I never would. You need to look at the coins in these sets because of the staple....
Take a closer look at the pic in the Cherrypicker's Guide. In this pic the underlying letter resembles a backwards J and you can see the leg...
Yeah I've seen some, but very few that would grade 66 and up. 67's are downright scarce and anything above that is all but unheard of.
