I picked this up the other day and realized it is my earliest serial number for a PCGS certified coin in my set. What is yours?

    It may be interesting to see who has the lowest cert number, but that doesn't mean it's the oldest cert. Initially, PCGS did not number the certificates sequentially; I have 1st generation holders with cert numbers ranging from 2048696 up to 9085261. The lowest cert numbers I have (1292667 and 1295288) are NOT 1st generation, but are green labels instead. It seems that PCGS may have used a random number generator at first. I think it would be neat if you could see the date a coin was slabbed when doing a cert # lookup. I'm sure the data is available, if PCGS can be persuaded to make it so.

    Here are my lowest cert #'s (green label):

    and here are my lowest first generation cert numbers:
