Anyone have slabs where the Insert is an error?

I have two:

1958-P MS66 Rosy where the slabs calls out a "25c" - must be the world smallest quarter!

1952-S MS67 Rosy where the slab calls out a "50c" - must be the worlds smallest half!

What have you found to contribute to the Insert "Hall of Shame" ???

This one made me laugh when I got it back from PCI.

I recently just sold it on eBay:

Look closely at the label on this one....

DHeath - the coin is a proof isn't it?!?!?

Jon, Here's one of my favorites:

I'm not sure if it still is, but for awhile it was the only MS DCAM listed in the POP reports!
(I think since then though someone dimed it out to PCGS and it's been removed...)

Here's another Washington Commemorative. TRIVIA: Can you spot the insert error on this one?! (it's there, you've just got to look. . .)
1982 error

I used to have a colonial coin with some wierd writing on the PCGS insert under the description -

I had no idea what it meant so I sent in a photo to PCGS for an explanation and they told me it was the name of a Swiss coin which had nothing to do with my coin. Does PCGS even slab Swiss coins?

Yea, I've got one that says "rotated reverse" and it's really the obverse that's rotated and then I have a whole bunch that say MS64 and they're really MS65's.

Sorry. Couldn't resist.

Have seen NGC mix up small vs. large letter FE's.

I have a nice 13-D Type I Buffalo Nickel in a PCGS holder, graded AU-58.

Problem being, the PCGS label identifies it as a Type II.

Nice coin though.

I've got a 1955 Lincoln Double Die that PCGS put "get this" MS 63. I know for a fact they ment MS 65.

If anyone wants to buy it I will sell it for what a 65 goes for and won't even charge you for the Insert error!

I have a 1909 VDB in a PCGS slab labeled 1909 MS 65 RED.

I belive the answer to the trivia question is that the Coin # is wrong. It should be 2 shouldn't it?

I also have a PCGS sample slab with an error label. It is a MS 1964 Kennedy half but the coinseries part of the serial number is that for a Proof 1963 Franklin.

Conder- ALSO the insert doesn't state the SERIES # (on the left of the insert)!
I hadn't even noticed the error you pointed out.

A Big Fat Error? What's wrong here?

Dog97 · February 1, 2003 1:08AM

Here's one. This is clearly a SOL and not an Eagle:

coppercoins · February 1, 2003 1:16AM

I have a slabbed 1929S RPM#1 (PCGS MS65RD) that wasn't slabbed as an RPM, but that's normal. What's not normal is that the slab says it's from Denver.

Anyone have slabs where the Insert is an error?
