    With the demand for this set due to it's reverse proof and a possible mint error on the silver medal; grading these pieces should be a relatively safe expense for collectors.

    Are you planning to submit yours? Post your results as they come back and let's see how CoinTalk members do!

    High-pop 69s or 70s?

    I will be posting mine next month...

    Note: NGC cutoff for special label is currently September 11th

    I'm not sure yet. Mine are due to arrive on Tuesday so I'll check them out and see if they are worthy.

    Got my two sets in the mail today. I will sell one of the sets to pay for both sets as well as the grading fees of the second. Never a bad thing to be full in the green on a coin.

    I have attached photos of the example I chose to submit. Any guesses on grade?

    The silver medal that came with this one didn't have any milk on it, but the other set had two small spots. No finning as far as I can tell in the capsule.

    I will post the results on return!

    Good luck to the rest of you.

    Got my Finalized results online from NGC for the set I submitted last week.

    2015 $1 Eisenhower RP - First Release
    PF69

    2015 Eisenhower Silver Medal - First Release
    MS68

    Yes. 68 out the box. I still consider myself lucky that I had one set without milk spotting on the medal. With all the production problems on the medal, I consider myself lucky. Anyone hit a 70 so far?

    I will put up pictures when I receive them back in the mail!

    What are 70 medals going for? I know 70 RP coins are a lot, but I have no chance for a 70 there.

    My
    Eisenhower C&C set coins got lost / delayed in the US postal system for 2 weeks, even though NGC shipped them 3 day registered priority mail.

    NO 70's :bigtears: Ike_C&C_Set.JPG 100_6637.JPG 100_6638.JPG 100_6640.JPG 100_6641.JPG 100_6642.JPG 100_6643.JPG

    I got all PCGS 69's on the coins, then a few medals in 70.

    Got my coins back. I am not at all disappointed with these additions, considering that the sale of the second set took care of all costs. I did locate some very light milk spotting on my medal however, after looking at it in many different light angles. At least i'm not alone in this.

    Very excited to see the long-term on the RP in the future.

    You did extremely well on the medals IMO, all things considering. Some very unhappy customers surrounding these!
