What is this PCGS holder’s generation?

Looks like the insert’s from Gen 2.0 (look closely), while the holder’s from 1.2. Thoughts? Not mine by the way.

Doily but with the outer plastic broken off of the inner plastic

@3keepSECRETif2rDEAD so you’re saying someone broke the holder and shoved that in? Interesting!
@Gluggo I saw that, that’s where I got the generation numbers from

Standard Doily. Outer ring missing. Nice acquisition. The ring can be replaced with a cheap 2.0 outer ring if you desire . . . . see me for details if you seriously desire to restore it . . . . . . .

...I did not know this...Thanks!
How do you do that without cracking the holder?
Good pick up @JasonGaming......please share more find as you grow your collection
That is an interesting slab... I have never had an interest in slab generations, but see them discussed here fairly often. I know I have one or two older one's, though not real old. I will have to check the link above and see what I have. Cheers, RickO
thats still a nice slab to have. i like
Somewhat succinctly put . . .the two-piece holders starting with the Doily, then moving through the 2.0 - 2.5 - 3.5 all have the same outer rings. The reason the 2.0 is valued so much is that the number of 2.0 holders surviving is (relatively) large . . . . and the 2.5 / 3.5 holders have enough of a holder premium it doesn't make sense to cannibalize them for the outer ring. That is why the 2.0 is so valued for ring replacement.
Simply . . . an X-Acto knife and some testing around the edges of a 2.0 will usually reveal areas where the holder is not tight, and you can probe with the X-Acto, gently prying the outer ring off in a clamshell fashion. I just then slip off the 2.0 interior (basically a Rattler) . . . replace the Doily by just sliding it in . . . .apply a small drop of KrazyGlue . . and you have a perfectly serviceable Doily. I only open the outer ring enough to slide out one interior . . . . . and replace the Doily. I don't split them completely apart. Finding 2.0s that seem 'loose' when you twist them can be helpful . . . . those are the ones that are easiest to use.
Yes . . . I DID find one 2.0 that was so tight I could not remove the outer ring without an extraordinary effort . . .so I just kept the holder intact . . . but that is not generally the case.
Sell off the basic 2.0 interior (I like to find Frankies or Mercs that are $15-$20 coins anyway) . . . and you are set. Ethically (to me at least) a perfect Doily . . . . . .with outer ring restored.
