    looks like the seller might not make back the slabbing fee on that one

    PCGS's pop reports really are not that helpful, it only lists 1 in VG but does not state if there are any in VG or grades lower.
    My guess is that it is for VG and lower which means yes a pop 1 coin.

    I think it's pretty sweet.

    Isn't that more like a Poop 1 coin? image

    It's all about the plastic for me,

    and I'm thinking of bidding, thanks for the heads up.


    I won't be bidding as much as I bid on this piece of plastic

    I think this is a G4 also...image

    I'd love to find something like that in a capped bust half dime -- working on a grading set and need a lot of the lower grades! Got a G-6, but I have my work cut out for me.

    It's pretty funny. Someone will probably pay $10 for a $2 coin just because it's in plastic which, in reality, should do nothing for the marketability of a coin in this grade.

    It might be fun (if money is no object) to assemble a complete registry set in G04. image

    Fun but looking at the pops probably impossible. Unless you hunt for raw ones and have them graded. Not too many people will spend $15 to grade a $1-2 coin.

    I wouldn't be surprised to see that coin go for over $20; it's a great Low Ball Registry coin.

    True, but bet one could find a slabbable lower grade one.

    I agree a G04 isn't the pinnacle.
