Has PCGS done this with other Prez/VPs in the past ? I dont remember ever seeing something like this before...
Is this a private label deal ?

Gack!
It's actually on their pop report page
More "stuff" from the mint.......not for me.
And they all grade 70. Interesting.
I just expanded the plus sign under the 2017 Silver Eagles and was lucky I didn't have anything in my mouth to spit out. Unless I miscounted, there are as many variants of 2017 Uncirculated ASE packaging as there are years that ASEs have been made!

I'm just trying to figure why someone would use the disagree button in a post that only poses questions. Whut ?
As for the special labels, I'm sure that a single enterprise got a special rate for 5,000 coins (10 monster boxes) to be graded at one shot. Maybe that has some bearing on the slow pace of all other turn around times for the past six (?) months.

It's tailor-made for HSN!
It's 5,000 three coin sets for 15,000 coins, 30 monster boxes. Not counting any not making MS70.
Your guess that this may have a bearing on turn times seems entirely plausible.
now i know where i would see something like that.
And there are those who are eager to buy it I guess.
Good Karma Collectables is that a front on eBay for HSN?
Saw them listed as pre-sale with MCM, red, white and blue gaskets, 2017-S Proof ASE's, 70DCAM, FDOI, $899
Whoops, looks like they're no longer pre-sale status, as they are live now.
Would you be saying this if Hillary had won and the slabs were honoring her and her running mate?
Worry is the interest you pay on a debt you may not owe.
No. And not for any political reasons, mind you. Rather it's due to the fact that Trump's very image provokes an involuntary gag reflex in over 50% of the US population. This never-before seen phenomena is currently being studied in many major universities and could prove incredibly useful in accidental poisonings and other potential ailments.
Sounds like you may be suffering from TDS (Trump Derangement Syndrome).

Where do these idiots get the idea that this is the 45th Presidential Inauguration? trump's was the 58th:

Probably from the same person who could not spell "Secretary of Education", er, make that "Educatuon"

"Making Silver Eagles" great again
Perhaps the Cheerios version would be of interest.....
Crap like this lowers PCGS's stature to HSN garbage level. They should knock it off.
Great transactions with oih82w8, JasonGaming, Moose1913.
I have no problem with our host commemorating the inauguration of a new president. I'm guessing that a private person or company commissioned PCGS to produce these special slabs.

No thanks, I'll pass.

And who could ever forget this one?.....................

i like to hold silver eagles raw. i'm just saying.
Can't they get the facts right? And did you see the website's description of the Walking Liberty obverse design, mentioning a bundle of branches while ignoring the American Flag in the design???
I'm looking forward to viewing the world through rose colored gaskets and eating chocolate cake... So let them eat cake.
Experience the World through Numismatics...it's more than you can imagine.
Not something I would collect, however, I am sure there is a market for these.... I equate labels with tarnish.... to me, it is zero added value..... anything beyond the coin is like wrapping paper on a gift... nice, but easily discarded in favor of the content. Cheers, RickO
Wow... if they really want to slap a label on it to make it more marketable, what they really need to do is put some characters from the movie "Frozen" on it. That seems to be the go-to image to sell just about anything.
Thank you PCGS for issuing these labels letting me know how special these American Silver Eagles are as a numismatic treasure. I would have missed it without your efforts.

Yoi do realuze that "U" and "I" are rught next to each other on the keyboard, rught?
If you're a sophomore writing a term paper, sure. If you're a grad student and you've just finished your first draft of your thesis, sure. If you're working for the US White House doing PR work and you can't even bother to proof read your post, then no...completely unacceptable. There's a level of professionalism that should automatically prevent such things. I mean, come on, the irony of such a typo when posting about the sec. of education is particularly telling of everything associated with this unfortunate chapter in American history.
It may be an unfortunate time for you, emotionally, but it is surely one hell of a time for me in all facets of life!
Hey, if you can stomach such antics, more power to you.
"Bundle of Branches"?
Sounds like a perfectly plausible Trumpian Description. As for the American Flag? I doubt that they even "see" the American Flag.
But, as I stated earlier, "Label Market Makers at Work" and I assume that, like the Obama supporters, there are Trump/Pence Supporters that wish to commemorate his election. But, it's just not for me as all I see a three one ounce silver bullion pieces wrapped in purty packaging and christened as First Strike™!
Surely these will be more valuable than Washingtons campaign buttons in just a few short years!

Of course you mean the flag of Trumptopia... Not to be confused with Freedonia.
Experience the World through Numismatics...it's more than you can imagine.
Yes. The coins were struck under a law from the 1980s that had/has no relation to either of the major presidential candidates. It looks like a money grab for irrelevant specialty labels to me, but whatever makes people happy I guess.
