I'll be honest... I couldn't have cared less about the coin when I saw listed--I thought the holder was WAY cooler image Turns out that the coin is actually attractive, to boot image

Hopefully HRH will autograph this for me at the ANA show in San Francisco image

    That's pretty cool.

    I'm most interested in the date, since a certain grading service leads people to believe they were the first certification service in 1984.

    What a coincidence, there was a coin mercenary by that name. Even wrote a book. Amazon has it listed.

    Several companies were paper certifying coins long before PCGS: Anacs, NCI (Heritage) to name two. And ACG was slabbing coins in the later 1970's as I recall. They may not have been first but they were years ahead of PCGS. PCGS just came up with the idea of assigning both an accurate grade and getting the dealer community to accept it. Up to that time only ANACs had the idea of assigning an accurate grade. The Redfield dollars in the 1970's were also slabbed as were GSA dollars. You could say those may have been the first! Our own govt in the early 1970's!

    There were also a number of PCGS founding dealer members. Not having read up on this I do not know if David Hall came up with the PCGS concept alone. Does anyone have the full story?

    It is always a question of knowing and seeing, and not that of believing.

    That was MS-63 obverse, MS-65 reverse. At the American Numismatic Association Certification Service, we graded the obverse and reverse of each coin.

    I think that these were done in the late 60s or early 70s. Don't know much about it, but I am particularly fond of this grouping due to the dual signatures of two important numismatic researchers of our time. Many like to find fault with Breen and Taxay, but just consider what they had to work with in terms of reference material. Very little. A lot of their work originated from research in the national archives, examining an enormous amount of coins/currency and then piecing it all together. The note is worth less than the certificate, imho.
