Re: Anyone want to share their new purchases?
Buy the coin…..AND the holder:
Very rare Gen 1.1 slab used for about a week in 1986. It’s the second one; the Gen 1.0 was used only a couple days before that. The condition of the slab is essentially pristine, thanks to the good care afforded by its previous owner (@oreville).
My pics are unedited save for cropping. I’ll work on better ones which I’ll post in our Saturday Morning Coffee with Coins thread.
IMO, the coin is nice for the 63 grade assigned. I’ll be taking it to FUN to see if it might even be better. Regardless, it’s going to remain in the 1.1 holder.

Re: Is Slab Collecting No Longer a Thing?
that’s cool, I would be happy if that were my coin/slab for sale and it got linked to a coin forum with a couple days left on the block. I would be equally as upset if I were a bidder 😂
Re: Post some provenance/pedigree!
My only pedigreed coin, and I acquired it just this past week. This one’ belonged to John Jay Pittman.
