Also would like to upgrade my 78.5. Mine is net graded MS 60 details.

My set is posted on the SSDC registry. Maybe you have an upgrade?

Perhaps another category would be of the coins where there are from 21 to 50 known representatives of any known clear grade. I understand that some ...

No interest here; already there are Top 30 and Top 30 complete sets, not based just on rarity. Population reports in SSDC registry for individual varieties are not entirely accurate either as lots of collectors don’t participate.

PMD IMO

Looks like the extra engraved feathers are clear; thinking 77, but some of the ‘B’ reverse heavyweights need to chime in.

22; no interest in that variety in that condition here…

Congrats, Lew!!
