[QUOTE="cpm9ball, post: 2636616, member: 24633"]Okay, so I'll tell you the story. 14 of the 52 coins came back MS68. I did not disagree with these grades. The remaining 38 coins graded MS67, and of these, about 12 should have graded MS68 as well. In fact, most of these coins looked just as good if not better than those that actually graded MS68. However, I'm not the sort of collector who resubmits and resubmits and resubmits hoping for a better grade. I made a decent profit off of the original submission, and maybe, just maybe, someone down the road will acquire one of these MS67's and think it is worthy enough to resubmit it for a better grade. If nothing else, they could get it to CAC. For what it's worth, 11 of the rest of the MS67's have a neat little die gouge on the obverse, and I still have these. I don't know what they might be worth because I've always believed that error coins are only worth what someone is willing to pay for them. The fact that all of them are MS67 business strikes makes them interesting. So, there you have the whole story. It wasn't because I wanted better grades for the MS68's, and I can understand why you jumped to the wrong conclusion. Chris[/QUOTE]
