    Well, it appears to be a photoshopped image of the US Mint website image onto a PCGS holder and the holder says "SAMPLE" on it as well.

    Nice job, MCM, in making it look like they were in possession of the real first strike.

    The real one will be floating around in the pockets of my jeans.

    The other will remain entombed in a nice brown box.

    Reminds me of the Gilligan's Island episode where Gilligan wasn't sure if Ginger and Mary Ann were "really girls". Skipper said if you can't tell then you need more help than I can give you.

    It was a rhetorical question.

    Notice that they are sold...



    How are these actually selling for $599 on ebay when they are still available from the US Mint? Besides that, I was under the impression that there is no premium for holdered 69's since moderns in us mint packaging are treated as 69's anyway. I don't recall where I heard/read that, is this not the case?
