Anyone seen a Silver Eagle in a PCGS Rattler?

PCGS started graded about the time silver eagles were hitting the market. I know Rattlers were only produced for a year of so. Are there any 1986 eagles in Rattler slabs? It would be cool to own one.

    I have seen them, years ago, at shows in the PNW....not a lot of them.... Never was a slab collector, and at the time, more interested in CC Morgans...Cheers, RickO

    You know can’t recall if seen one. When PCGS first came out focus on classic coins one could get graded and really bank.

    Upgrade potential on ASE 69 rattlers?

    Interesting that the labels on the proofs are in different formats.

    @Lakesammman I swear I was just researching these last night, and came across a similar thread from the boards which was created a few years ago. How ironic!!

    The coin numbers on these old slabs do not correspond to the current coin numbers. 9680 is a 9802. The cert verification lists the proper coin number. Some reorganizing must have happened sometime back then.
