Question about Bicentennial PCGS Slabbed Coins with Designers' Signatures

When these were signed, were they actually hand-signed, or stamped? And does anyone have any idea of the number of them that were signed? Thank you for any answers, inquiring minds need to know!

    The signatures are the actual signaures. They sign blank pages which will later get printed and inserted into the holders.

    I had a few sets that i believe were hand signed. A coin store that deals mainly in bullion sold them to me for 5 bucks a set. I did alright on the resell.

    I remember they were sold by Les Fox (folkartnut on ebay). There are apparently different flavors of these slabs - on Teletrade right now is a set of these but they are graded 69DCAM (not just Gem Proof) and labeled ___ of 500.

    I see on Heritage archives that a set like the one in your photo sold for $195.50 in Jan 2009 - and a month before, they sold an identical set for $21.

    New collectors, please educate yourself before spending money on coins; there are people who believe that using numismatic knowledge to rip the naïve is what this hobby is all about.
