Does anyone here have more pre-1950 than post-1950 coins in slabs? If so, tell me what you have in slabs, if you wish.

Fairlaneman

Sure Do. I have NO Coins after 1950 in Slabs.

That's only because Mercs weren't minted later than 1945.

I also started a Type Set but Have Refrained from Buying the Post 1950 Coins. So Many are around so that puts them on the Back Burner for Quite some Time. Yes You are Right the Rare 1951 Merc has not been found Yet.

I have a couple of modern slabs....my 911 coin from this forum for instance and a millenium sac and SAE... but as you can see from my small collection of Mercs.... I have many more pre 1950 slabs.

Mercs rule!

I must be out of the loop. I thought there were dozens of pre-1950 slabs
for each post-1950 slab. Very few later coins were graded until recently, right?

I have about 60 slabbed coins pre-1950 actually most are pre 1933. Grades range from AU55 to MS66. I also have 3 slabbed Kennedy halves I submitted myself (1964,68 and 69.). Other than that I have about 100 unslabbed proof from 1955 to 1990. I wouldn't spend the money to slab a coin worth less than $100 which includes all of these. I also have about 20 unslabbed coins pre-1900.

If I were to own any modern slabbed coins they would probably be PR68DCAMs which are a really good value compared to the 69-70 coins and most collectors (including myself) could not tell the difference except by the label.

I've got over 650 slabs, and I'd estimate that three fourths of them are pre-1950. The later ones are mostly cameo proofs before 1971, Washington quarters that I needed to complete that set, and a few Franklin halves.

I have 56 PCGS Slabs before 1950 and 14 after 1950 and none in 1950. The cool coins are before 1950.

Most of mine are pre 1950, Type set coins, Lincolns wheaties, Large cents. My Sacs and post 1950 type set coins are my only Moderns.

Yep, I only have about 6 post 1950 and about 20 pre. When I get my three submissions back it will be about 75% pre and 25% post. Though it will change again because for the first time I'm submitting some coins that I will resell.

Mine are about even.

clackamas

Yes by a long shot. Mostly Lincolns, Morgans and Jeffersons.

I lean toward the post-50s since I specialize in Jeff proofs, but have a fair number of pre-50s, including my pride and joy 1940 Proof Set in PR 65/66!
