My birthday is "invalid". I could call PCGS customer service, as they suggest.....but I don't think they will be able to change my birthday.

Great transactions with oih82w8, JasonGaming, Moose1913.
It would be cool if the coin was in a registry & we could contact the owner to try & purchase!

Interesting project. Interesting to see the average coin value. Most wouldn’t be worth slabbing except maybe in a bulk or economy submission.
I'm only a penny.
