  Very cool! It has that early PCGS slab design.

  I recognize that slab. Can't say where I've seen one before, though...

  I think quite a few of the earlier TPG's used that same shell and dot-matrix insert. That is a new one that I have never seen before, though.

  These used to pop up a few years ago occasionally. Now they show up much less frequently. Mercury dimes and Morgan dollars, if I recall, are the most common inhabitants.

  Looks very similar, if not identical to what Blanchard used.
