What is the LOWEST graded slabbed coin you own?!
I'm genuinely curious!
NOT including ancient coins...what is your LOWEST graded slabbed coin?
When it comes to slabs we all love the MS69's and the PR70's!
But who's got some real worthless junk coin graded in a slab?
And I would love to see it!
Maybe I should offer some sort of gift for the "winner" with the most pathetic graded coin?
The grades go all the way down to "PO-1" which simply and sadly just stands for "Poor".
Technically there is also "Ungradable"...but I'm guessing you might not want to slab most of those lol.
I'm not even sure what the lowest grade I've ever seen in a slab is...Maybe an AG-03 or something for a very old coin...but I want to see an AG-03 of a 1990's coin or something wacky lol!
Coins are Neato!

Just because a coin is graded very low or even details doesn't make it junk or pathetic. Some incredible rarities are graded very low and worth great sums.
Great transactions with oih82w8, JasonGaming, Moose1913.
Welcome to the forum!
Someone will be along to post a P01 for ya, there are several lowball collectors here.

I'm not into lowballs, but there is one coin in specific that I own in a straight graded AG3 because anything else was prohibitively expensive.
Successful transactions with: wondercoin, Tetromibi, PerryHall, PlatinumDuck, JohnMaben/Pegasus Coin & Jewelry, CoinFlip, and coinlieutenant.
Of course lol! That's what would be fun to see...incredibly low grades worth a ton but also how much fun would it be to see true junk (or maybe it's a sentimental item) that got graded :-)

I only collect MS coins, so my lowest is 'only' a 62.

Interesting question, I had to sort my spreadsheet. Here is my lowest grade coin NGC VF25

Haha, my lowest is a ms67.
How about a photo of your ms67?

I have three F12s. All very different. 1840o 10c, 1806 50c, 1799 $1. I have one morgan where I almost think I can read the date but can't. It would be a sure-bet PO-1 if there was just a hair more date visible.

I would have to look but it's probably AU something.
Self explanatory.

I have an 1907 Indian cent that's broad struck as a g 6 somewhere that I like

I think you just won.

I've been collecting since the 70's and I have never seen one of those before, so thank you!

This one. It's the best that I can afford.
I dont have any graded coins 😭😭
There's something appealing about a CAC lowball slab.
Part of a grading set of Peace dollars.
You should get some.
You can buy some common, yet attractive, MS coins for $15-30.
Or some tougher dates in XF-AU for the same.

I have an 1818 Capped Bust Quarter that was recently graded VG-8 by PCGS. That's my lowest.
You should get some inexpensive slabbed coins. I started off with just 2 PCGS coins for a long time but I had them and they were neat. I still have both.
They won’t win this game, but they’re winners in my book. I tried to get them a friend two weeks ago but got sniped and lost.
I don’t have a ton of low grade slabs, but I like the ones I have.
I guess the lowest I ever had that was slabbed was a 1932D Washington in AG in one of those yellow ANACS slabs. Got it at a good price and cracked it out for my Littleton album.

Love that Fugio @Zoins
Okay, had to think about this while I was out harvesting the Mesquite. I finally figured it out and when I checked the spreadsheets, I was right.
Then I had to check if I had a picture of them (because I actually have two of this grade). I have pictures of each.
Then I had to think, which one is really a lower grade, using pictures, my notes and all of the scientific exact grade formula information that is the subject of another thread on the board this weekend.
Then I had dinner and a beer, because, well, I was hungry and thirsty.
After all that, I decided it must be this one, which really isn't that low, but it's as low as I have, slabbed, today

I have a lowly AG03, but it's a 1796 quarter. It's possibly CAC-worthy, with its fully VG obverse.
Nice! 2 PO-1's in one day!!!

If your timing is good you can get a graded coin for just a couple bucks on ebay... if you can shop there

I like those too.
They are in better condition than I would've expected for the grade...but the stories/history if coins could talk...!

Thanks but I'm not a fan of green stickers. It came with one so that's the way it stays.

1838 Seated Dime PCGS P01
1876-CC Seated Quarter PCGS P01
