Here is an 1885 O in a GSA holder. I thought only CC's came in GSA holders. Am I to learn something ELSE today?

I remember discussing this with GSA guy in a PM awhile back. He said there were several like this, most people returned them and got the correct coin, a CC mint, or a refund.

There is no way GSAguy would have said anything like that. First of all returns were not allowed and there were no refunds. Second these were not an error of any kind and were clearly offered as non-CC dollars in the sales. There were four different GSA holders.

1.) A pliofilm holder that came in a blue envelope. These holders held circulated non-CC dollars, a few heavily worn CC dollars, one seated Liberty dollar, and for some reason a bunch of the 1878-CC's.

2.) Large hard plastic holder. Says United States above the coin and Uncirculated Silver Dollar below it. These holders held the non-CC dollars from the hoard that were judged to be Uncirculated.

3.) Large plastic holder. Says Carson City above the coin, and Silver Dollar below it. This holder was used for those CC dollars that had tarnish or were judged as not making the Uncirculated grade.

4.) Large plastic holder. Same as the last but these say Uncirculated Silver Dollar below the coin. Obviously these were for the CC dollars that the GSA did decide were UNC.

Some of my 78cc's in the envelopes look better than the cased Gsa's

Do you want me to go back and post PMs and or emails I had with Bryan? That is exactly what he told me.

If you really do, it will have to be tomorrow or tomorrow evening, I'm off to bed right now. Have to be up and bouncing around in 7 hours.
