Poor 1 in old small Anacs slab - anyone ever see another one?

A big thanks to @AlanSki for this cool Morgan! It’s the only PO 1 I’ve seen in a small white Anacs slab.
And I know there is no date (which some consider necessary to get a straight grade) but I think this is as good as it gets for a PO 1 example in these holders.

Has anyone seen one (graded PO 1) with a date or another like this with no date?

    B) Nope, only the one I sold you. However, there may be one in the old ANACS thread.

    I haven't seen one but they are apparently out there. ANACS has them listed in their pop reports but we can't tell if they're in soap bars slabs.

    I also believe a true PO-1 needs a date.

    I have seen a few in the yellow Anacs holders and now one more small white in another resurfaced thread here.

    @U1chicago - I pretty much like anything in those small soap bars!

    Oakstar,
    what you really should like is any small white holder with 6 digits or less, since the 6 digits were older when ANACS was truly the conservative grading company. The 7 digit holder is much more recent when ANACS was extremely loose imo

    I have some to sell. Need a 1908-S in 63BN?

    Thanks but I already have one. 🤣

    You mean 6 digits on the label like this?

    I like the 6 digit and under. They seem to be the most conservative graded IMO. However, caveat emptor always applies.

    The OP's Lowball is cool. A lot of these worn coins are not problem free and show stains and evidence of mishandling that make the overall presentation unattractive.
    The ANACS PO1 shown has the dove gray, hard and smooth surfaces that re desirable.

    On a side note: ICG also grades/slabs these no date Morgans (and Peace dollars).


    The OP’s coin is actually attractively toned light pastels. I think I have a video saved I can post later today.

    I'm digging it. A totally cool Lowball, for sure.
    Does it slightly rattle in the slab? Sometimes these get worn to where they will rotate either in a holder or in an album.

    Oakstar,
    What Alanski said is correct most of the time imo

    The only cartwheel that I see in the video is from the reflection from the overhead lights, (LOL) and the number on the population report of 19 must have been from the owner of that coin resubmitting it for an upgrade, one thing for sure it spent a Lot of Time in someone's pocket. Great Pocket Piece.

    Note that the population report includes all generations, so most of those are the yellow slabs.

    And yes the only cartwheel is the light in my video. :D

    Picked this Half Cent up on Teletrade over 28 years ago. Lousy pic, but you can faintly make out the date.
