    This one is fun. Don’t recall when but judging by the heavy “sell” advertising, someone probably over paid.Found it in the yard sale “keepers “ locker and it’s kinda cool

    It's the real deal - posted 2 of them in the Compugrade thread, purchased both earlier this year. Here's the other. They walked into a dealers shop with 4 Morgans, also Compugrade - was able to make a deal to acquire both.

    Nice! Can you tell any difference between what they called a 63.5 and the 63.6? I wouldn't think so, but you never know.

    Kove - BIG difference between 63.5 and 63.6, especially the luster ....... :D

    Never have seen OBCS - any idea what year that was slabbed??

    The ANACS slab is earlier than I've seen - like a title you sign off when you sell the coin - interesting! Didn't take them long to flip it!

    I have a number of website resources for obscure Third Party Grading services and not a single one lists OBCS. I'm not sure they even operated a full year or even a full month but this just increased the intrigue.

    Thanks for the info, @BStrauss3. I'm a bit ashamed to admit it but my OOB collection has very rustic home as well:

    Here is my updated list, pending a couple of new purchases today:

    The CCCS slab above made me remember this one I have… it’s a one off - 1994 the only year they made a 1/15oz platinum maple leaf with a $2 denomination.

    I really like that it’s a low mintage (less than 1500) Canadian coin in a Canadian holder… enjoy!

    That’s a super cool coin and holder!

    In my collection which includes a bunch of doily's, NGC 2.0, 2.1 and 3.0's and even a PCGS Regency, this might be my rarest holder. It's an ANACS Gen 3 (old soapbox, no bar-code with a six digit numerical cert). Less than 100 known to exist. Thanks to a fellow forum member for a great deal:

    A few from the back of the vault

    Q: When does a collector become a numismatist?



    A: The year they spend more on their library than their coin collection.



    A numismatist is judged more on the content of their library than the content of their cabinet.

    2 fairly common and 1 rare Compugrade sample. Was really surprised to see the rare one be offered - can you tell which is which??

    If I were a betting man, I would say the 69-D. :)

    Seriously, if it is date related, I'd say the '67 is the rare one and if it is holder related, I'd say holder missing the L00 is the rarer one. The other question I have is, which one do you want to sell?

    Picked up another over-graded oddball holder at the San Jose Coin Expo this morning.

    This may not seem very rare at first glance, but according to the research provided in Conder101's book this slab is NGC6 which is a transitional slab. This was the first of the keyed slabs from NGC but with the gen5 reverse hologram, Conder101 did not give an exact date of service but thinks it was in use during 1996.
