<p>[QUOTE=&quot;jester3681, post: 2565337, member: 53130&quot;]Got a group back from PCGS yesterday, and I thought I&#039;d share. Mostly Civil War tokens, with a Hard Times and Washington Medal mixed in.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]553776[/ATTACH] </p><p>HT-M21/Low-366 MS63BN - I was really excited to see this one come back with a straight grade. With how nit-picky the TPGs have been, I was worried I&#039;d get questionable color or cleaned.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]553777[/ATTACH] </p><p>Fuld OH-860A-1a XF45BN - I got most of the crud off this one before I sent it in. I was worried to work too hard at it and risk scratching the flan.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]553778[/ATTACH] </p><p>Fuld OH-860C-1b AU55 - Kinda bummed this one didn&#039;t slide. I&#039;ll most definitely be on the lookout to upgrade this relatively common piece.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]553779[/ATTACH] </p><p>Fuld NY-630BV-1a AU58BN - I bought this one specifically to have the reverse imaged to use as a pictoral in my Fugio book, illustrating the minting technology of this era. Pleased with the grade - I had this pegged in the XF/AU range.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]553780[/ATTACH] </p><p>Fuld 127/201a MS62BN - I had a GTG thread for this guy, and stumped some folks. I have a white metal example at PCGS as well, but I am very pleased with the grade on this one. I knew it would be borderline.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]553781[/ATTACH] </p><p>Fuld MI-525D-4a VF35BN - This is from my grandfather&#039;s collection, the only Civil War token he had. I still have thousands of cents and nickels to sort through, but I wanted to get this one certified for the family collection. I know there&#039;s someone out there that is big on Jackson, MI CWTs.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]553782[/ATTACH] </p><p>Fuld OH-445A-4a MS63BN - Oh the color on this one! I knew it would be uncirculated, but am thrilled it got a straight grade. Steel blue and brown make this one lovely in hand, and the imaging was wonderful.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]553783[/ATTACH] </p><p>Baker 22B Washington Born Virginia Collis Restrike, 1959. I have completely fallen out of love with this one. The color and grain toning are neat, but the next owner will enjoy it. It already got kicked to the &quot;thinning the herd&quot; pile.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
