    I'm still hunting for an NGC 1.0 and a 108 white label rattler. Unfortunately, I have never actually seen either one in person and they have both probably surpassed my budget.

    This one is on ebay, $20 Liberty in PCGS Unc holder, no numerical grade, not a problem coin:

    Also, what generation NGC holder is this?

    Here is a new purchase form the Long Beach show.


    Nice pick-up, @bob48. Would make a nice sibling for my old Accugrade holders:

    @logger7 That looks like an NGC Gen. 4 holder. I can't say 100% without seeing the back of the slab, but based on the high cert. number I assume the back has a hologram. If so, then it is a Gen 4.

    This display case was at the Long Beach Expo in February. NGC 1.0's, PCGS 1.0 and 1.1's. Not sure if this dealer is at the Long Beach show this weekend but definitely was the highlight of my show:

    That's pretty awesome, thanks for sharing.

    Touché Bob. I can’t hold a candle to your collection. Very impressive!

    I picked up the Huxley at the Long Beach Expo in February ironically enough.

    If you’re interested in acquiring it, please PM me as it looks like you have the extended family of blue label Accugrade’s.

    I like your NCI collection. I have the book, and I have a NCI photo cert. with the coin in a flip. I also have a NCI slab without the photo cert., but I can never seem to find a matching NCI slab and photo cert together. Atleast not one that is reasonably priced.

    I posted my 1st two boxes of ACG on IG... it's still TECHNICALLY the weekend, so

    These are my stacks of the two basic forms of the common "SINCE 1984" production slab.

    I finished going through the easily accessible one and have 7 slab boxes (not 100% - need to leave room for growth)

    I don't know. I bought this off ebay several years ago, but I'm not sure from whom. There was one sold on ebay a few months or so ago, but I wasn't the buyer. I put in a bid in case it went too cheap, but it ended up going for more than I was willing to spend on a duplicate.

    Great pictures, Burton. Can’t wait to see the text of the collection.

    Yeah, the one sold a few months ago was mine. Never seen another, neat.

    New "scanner". I'm air quoting it because it's actually a camera on a pole. I bought it via Indiegogo. There is still some availability there.

    https://www.czur.com/product/et24pro

    So far so good, although their software sucks. It's like they've never used any other windows app and they just invented their own metaphors. You can't tab between entry boxes... WFT

    But it does a great job scanning paper... just slap it down on the black mat, press the button and it takes an image and auto crops & straightens. I haven't begun to exercise the machine.

    Next think to try is putting a few slabs on the mat, pressing the button and then using their breakup image function.

    There is a different coin for sale on fleaBay right now. He wants $400 for it.

    Yeah I saw that. If it sells for that I might have to let mine go.

    I don't think I have seen a US Tangible Investment Corp. slab posted in this thread yet.

    It appears to be the same shell used by WMP.

    @UpGrayedd - nice find. I knew I had a USTI holder but it was a bit of an Easter Egg hunt to find it:

    Thanks @pointfivezero, you've got a lot of other nice plastic in that picture. I especially like the PCGS Regency in the middle. Is that an ex Danny Kaye?

    Thanks @UpGrayedd! It is a Danny Kaye in the Regency Holder. I consider the Danny Kaye's the Rodney Dangerfield of old holders. Here is my current collection:

    Wow, that is truly impressive. I'm almost speechless.

    That would have been a cool item for sure! I do have #371 so apparently Danny found some more Lirot in his loose change after the original run of 363:

    It's finally the weekend, at least for me. Similar to the GENI slab I posted earlier this isn't necessarily rare in other parts of the world, but you don't see them very often here in the U.S. It's such a unique/odd design I had to add one to my slab collection.

    RNGA, is a Russian TPG (Please note: I purchased this long before the current war, and I am not trying to make any kind of political statement. I just think it's a cool slab).

    Nice colorful holder. I have a Russian holder as well (NNR).

    Just picked this set up in the last hour. Probably paid too much but I'm happy. The Photo Holder is a 1888-O MS65DMPL in an INS holder:

    Nice, I'm still on the lookout for an INS slab. You don't see them all that often, and the ones you do are all priced fairly strong. I've got my eye on one off the bay. It's not a Morgan, which might make it even more rare, but the asking price is about three times the actual coins value, and I haven't convinced myself to pull the trigger yet. However, I'm sure I will eventually unless someone beats me to it.

    Thanks @UpGrayedd. There is a Morgan INS on ebay now. It is been listed for quite some time. Maybe the seller would be open to an offer?

    This just arrived today. Purchased from a fellow forum member. Not really sure what it is but I know I didn't have one:

    Cool, I don't think I've ever seen a NIC slab either. Hard to tell from the pics, but it almost looks like the insert is cardboard, but I assume it can't be since the coin still appears to be white.
