    This auction was featured in a Thread about a week or so ago, but you're right- that's an unusual ANACS holder, the first I've seen. It almost reminds me of the Regency Slab PCGS brought out back in the late eighties.

    1921 P Morgan dollar struck in high relief; that's news to me. Anyone with any info on that please expound.

  • It is not an ANACS slab, it is just a custom holder that has been made up to house this pair of coins. I believe the holders edges have been cropped from the photo but it looks like a custom Capital Plastics job. It was made up by a firm called Liberty Mint from New York. Look after the copyright date on the back lower right. Can't quite read the copyright but it looks like it might be 1993. Also notice that although they list both coins as being ANACS MS-66 and have the ANACS logos on the holder they do not list the serial numbers for either coin. There is no way to know if eitherof these coins was ever graded MS-66 by ANACS. There is no photocertificate, and they have been cracked out of any slab they were ever in.
  • Conder - how can they get away with using the ANACS logo on the back of the holder?

  • Looks like copywrite is 1991.

  • Simple, ANACS doesn't know about it. Possibly they were ANACS graded at one time and the company just decided to put the logos on it. Problem is you can't prove that these are the coins ANACS certified.
