Unusual slab? PCGS early holder variety?

I dont remember seeing this one with the number of rings around the coin....but maybe the slab collectors can fill me in if the slab is rarer than the coin?

    Interesting. Looks like 3 separate gaskets consolidated concentrically. Never seen that before. image

    Looks to me like it's just PCGS slab#2 that is a rattler within a
    second slab around it. Used in Oct & Nov 1989.

    Hope this doesn't repeat 6 times.

    Looks like the normal gasket for a small coin.

    Looks like the posting system is wonky yet again.
    When in doubt, don't.

    Either that, or Coindeuce just REALLY found it interesting image


    I agree that it is normal for that time period of stabbing and for a really small coin

    I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment

    Very interesting. I have never seen that before, either. Must have been the way they slabbed smaller coins in the early post-rattler days.

    Just stop hitting reply repeatedly. The original post will show up sooner or later.

    Perhaps the gasket machine had the same issue as coindeuce's posts?

    Funny you should bring this up. Although these have been around for some time, I remember not "noticing" them until about 6 or 7 years ago, and asking nearly the same question, but then realized they are common enough to see at every show.

    The CU server timed me out 5 times, after an indication that the first reply didn't upload. image

    I have one of those...sorta...the gasket in mine is kinda frosted, while yours is more clear...no overdate though.
