What are the first 3 #'s of the cert?
209
2010
Perhaps the SP image info on the cert lookup might also give a hint if the image date can be pulled from the pcgs web site.
after fighting with the browser.

but it is clearly from the SP early days. HMmmmmm
There is a scarce/rare blue Metallic label from the vey early SP days
11.5$ Southern Dollars, The little “Big Easy” set
Photo?
Is this what you're referring to??
@Lakesammman Thats it!! I am trying to see how long "red" copper jas been in a holder to determine how stable it is. So far so good. Thanks everyone!! The coin I have started its life in a NGC holder that sold at FUN in 2011. Now it is in the holder above.
...well they didn't take very long to get it crossed because I was getting #209 certs in 2011
edit: #206 certs end of September 2011 and #209 certs beginning of November 2011 for me
and I forgot about the continuation of the Generations slab thread organized and kept by Lakesammman
perhaps Lakes can link it here
Here's the generations thread - have been working on it since the Photobucket disaster.
It's very different from how PCGS looks at generations but I find it visually useful especially for putting PCGS Samples into their proper emission sequence.

@Lakesammman and @Crypto
...is this one of them? Look at the old school single obverse only sniffer-scan in the cert link
