    I thought they would do coins back as far as 1600.

    My guess would be the 1652 NE Shilling (although that coin was not dated) so far as the American series goes. That was first coin made in the English colonies. The Spanards date back to the mid 1500s.

    I've seen foreign gold coins that date back to the mid-1300s in PCGS holders. I believe the first coin anywhere that carried a date was a 1487 thaler... and I've seen one of those in a PCGS holder.
    When in doubt, don't.
