Please tell me if this is a correct slab ID - it says Y105 and mintage of 98,800 but I can't find it in Krause with that small of a mintage or with a Y150 designation?????

Thanks in advance,

    I can only tell you that it is not the very old PCI holder based on the font

    Experience the World through Numismatics...it's more than you can imagine.

    Is it a piedfort or a proof?

    newsman - I thought the same thing but the coin is not thicker then a regular coin and it is MS65 rather than PR65...so I'm still puzzled.

    The mintage matches the 1974 Specimen FDC set......

    Ah DCH - I think you might have it, this must be from a specimen FDC set that someone took apart , Hmmm so they designate these as MS.
    Thanks for the help.
