A Contest (WINNER): guess the PCGS number on this sample slab

Hi all, in honor of my new lens purchase (well it's used, but new to me), I thought I'd do a fun contest.



The challenge is simple (but not easy) -- guess the PCGS CoinNumber.Grade/CertNumber for the pictured sample slab (below). You have at least part of it revealed, you need to guess the rest.



The contest will run either:



a) 24 hours, or

b) until someone guesses correctly



Whichever should come first, and/or whoever is the closest.



c) each person can take 3 guesses.



The winner will receive the below pictured medal (from the 1997 New England Numismatic Association convention).



Good luck and have fun!

    If we were all the same, the world would be an incredibly boring place.

    Well, that was a short lived contest. Maybe it wasn't as difficult as I thought...



    Nevertheless, congrats to JeffersonFrog for posting the first correct answer.
