Just joined this group and posting to say hello. I have found some FS varieties in my collection of raw coins and recently submitted a few to PCGS for grading. One newly graded variety is a 1950 D MS65FB RPM FS-502 variety (1 of 3 graded examples, with 2 at MS65FB and 1 at MF66FB)

Still quiet as a tomb around here. The 1961 half dollar in the OGP set I posted a few months ago has been graded. It graded PF68 (no Cameo). A very nice grade on the coin but I am surprised it did not receive the CAM designation. I that coin was the DDR FS-803 variety. PCGS disagreed. However, after checking the coin a second time I learned that it is the Variety Vista DDR-002 variety (which is not attributed by PCGS). So, to conclude this post I say: Bueller? Bueller? 😀

I have not posted on MyCollect in over a year. Purchased this 1961 Proof Set on EBay as a BIN cherrypick. The half dollar looks like it is a possible CAM or even a DCAM. When the set is delivered to me I need to give the half a bath to remove the haze present on the coin. Hopefully it will clean up very well.

Two frosty quarters. PF69CAM and PF68

Still very quiet around here. Here is my 1957 Proof Set. Cent - PF68CAM; Nickel - PF67CAM; Dime - PF67CAM; Quarter - PF68CAM; Half - PF68CAM

Yesterday I upgraded my 1939 Registry Set with a PF67 toned half, which replaced my prior PF64 untoned half.

My 1940 Proof Set. The cent is PF66RD, the nickel is PF67 (reverse of 1940), the dime is PF67, the quarter is PF66 and the half is PF67.

I received an 8 coin voucher submission back from PCGS last week. The 8 coins include 2 1957 proof nickels that both graded PF67CAM, a 1951 proof dime that graded PF67CAM, 2 1957 proof dimes that both graded PF67CAM, a 1959 half that graded PF67 and 2 1961 half dollars that both graded PF67. IMO the three half dollars should have received a CAMEO designation.

I recently submitted a number of coins to PCGS For grading, including a number of attractively toned coins. Looking forward to seeing the results and Trueview photos.

Pretty quiet around here. Here is a Trueview photo of a 1967 SP67CAM quarter. I have. I think that absent the toning on this coin it would warrant a DCAM designation. However the toning is very attractive and makes the coin stand out from others of that date (Removing the toning would result in a coin that Ricko would like).

This month and last month I have sent in a number raw, possible CAMEO, 1951-1972 proof and SMS coins (some toned) to PCGS for grading. Looking forward to seeing the results. I expect that some of these coins will grade high enough to upgrade some of my PCGS Registry Sets. Hopefully grades will post sometime before the end of the year.

Just joined this group. As my first post to this group I will post photos of my toned 1941 proof set.

Here are some toned proof Franklins. I really like the 1956 Type 1 and the 1956 Type 2.

Here is the toned quarter that came from the same OGP that my toned 1958 D Franklin came from. It has booming luster on the obverse.

I submitted to PCGS last week 8 possible Cameo proofs. They are untoned and include two 1957 nickels, one 1951 dime, two 1957 dimes, one 1959 half dollar and two 1961 half dollars. If any of the 1950's era coins receive a Cameo designation my PCGS Registry sets will likely upgrade.
