Are there any old PCGS / ANACS / NGC Population Report / Census issues that are particularly useful to those who study slabs and related topics? I suppose the quantity differences between consecutive issues would provide some interesting information.

    Good question.

    I think you can pick your coin/series and go into the registry on NGC and see what you need...same with PCGS. Then with ANACS you used to be able to login to their site and view the data there as well. That's what I did in 2012 when I did a Key/Semi-Key Date Analysis of Mercury Dimes etc.

    PCGS Coin Facts shows population numbers in addition to a lot of other good information. Over the years many coins have been resubmitted many times in the hopes of getting a better result and many coins have been crossed back and forth from other grading services so the population numbers are very inaccurate but they do give you an idea of the relative rarity of specific coins within that series. The grading services will correct their population numbers when the labels from crack outs are returned but I'm guessing that most labels are just tossed in the trash can.

    Worry is the interest you pay on a debt you may not owe.

    I use the Pcgs market report look at total graded for an issue. Of course I realize re submissions may have inflated it. I may compare issues or just look for issues below a certain number like 1000. This is to estimate how many of this issue available (PCGS) to fill the hole whether G04 or MS66.

    there are a few threads here in the archives for such a thing but they are not comprehensive, just for about half a dozen different types or less.
