Just for kicks I typed my birthday into the PCGS Cert Verification. I used the format MM/DD/YYYY (without the /'s of course).

For my birthday the coin that popped up was:
Coin: 1879-S Morgan Dollar
Grade: MS62
Mintage: 9,110,000
Population: 3970
PCGS Price guide: $58

By typing in your birthday at https://pcgs.com/cert, let's see who has:
The oldest coin:
Most recent coin:
Highest grade:
Lowest grade:
Highest Mintage:
Lowest Mintage:
Highest Value:
Lowest Value:
Lowest Population:

    But I'm only worth $160.00 :/

    Great transactions with oih82w8, JasonGaming, Moose1913.

    It would be cool if the coin was in a registry & we could contact the owner to try & purchase!
