Haven't found anything for my type set in several months but I just had to scratch the coin itch. Now that I have the coin in hand, I would say it would grade 65 today as well. Reverse is proof like

    Such a cool and neat presentation.
    And thank you for having the plastic screws facing the correct position (with the screw ends on the reverse).

    The holder, intact with the coin and certificate, is a nice find.

    That's an after-market holder made by Capitol Plastics. Very cool find. B)

    Its a shame that ANACS didn't holder the coins in that manner way back then, it would have been so cool, but of course I would have wanted the holder to be sealed and not just screwed in place to make it a permanent residence.

    As others have said this is a private aftermarket holder, and a mighty fine one.
