Anyone seen a Silver Eagle in a PCGS Rattler?

PCGS started graded about the time silver eagles were hitting the market. I know Rattlers were only produced for a year of so. Are there any 1986 eagles in Rattler slabs? It would be cool to own one.

Yes they do exist
You mean like this??
There were about a dozen or so made, all years combined.
And a proof! Thanks Lakesammman. Any history as to this one?
Was offered to me several years ago by Todd, the 62 Corvair guy......or was it a 62Vett??
Here's another, snagged it on ebay

All of my collection is in a safe deposit box!
Very nice !!!
I have a proof in a rattler also—the mint state photo was just easier to find quickly.
Chance favors the prepared mind.
I have seen them, years ago, at shows in the PNW....not a lot of them.... Never was a slab collector, and at the time, more interested in CC Morgans...Cheers, RickO
Larry Shapiro used to sell Corvair parts.
You know can’t recall if seen one. When PCGS first came out focus on classic coins one could get graded and really bank.
Upgrade potential on ASE 69 rattlers?
One sold on GreatCollections for moon money last year. Maybe @ianrussell can find and post the completed auction link.

Interesting that the labels on the proofs are in different formats.

@Lakesammman I swear I was just researching these last night, and came across a similar thread from the boards which was created a few years ago. How ironic!!
There are 2 varieties of proof and 2 varieties of ms

^Both links are the same. Great snag!
The coin numbers on these old slabs do not correspond to the current coin numbers. 9680 is a 9802. The cert verification lists the proper coin number. Some reorganizing must have happened sometime back then.
