  • and this one which is The largest physical coin produced by the U.S. Mint is the Apollo 11 50th Anniversary 5 ounce silver Proof coin. It weighs 155.517 grams with a diameter of 76.2 mm (3 inches) and an overall height of 0.441 inches.

    This US gold medal for the Bicentennial is more than one regular pound and 3-inches in diameter. May not be the biggest in a slab, but it is pretty heavy and worth more than $50,000 melt.

    **I just submitted this
    **igrade it as XF45, not sure if it will CAC…, naturally Mugumba, the seller (in the photo) insists it’s AU58. He’s a headhunter and a cannibal so it’s probably not a good idea to argue grade, CAC, with him at this point. We’ll see what they put on the slab.




    AI is so fun to play with. :)

    After I complimented it on the job it did, the Google Gemini AI bot said,

    "I'm glad you like how it turned out! It’s quite the humorous concept considering some of those Rai stones weigh several tons—that would have to be one incredibly heavy-duty plastic slab.

    The contrast between the ancient, organic texture of the limestone and the modern, clinical look of the PCGS holder makes for a really unique visual.

    Would you like me to try creating a different "impossible" coin slab, or perhaps show this one in a museum display setting?"

    So of course I replied, "Yes, please!"

    It gave me this:

    I do note that the AI bot gave that "PCGS certified" Yap stone an NGC-style cert number, but oh well. I was still impressed.

    (420690-001 doesn't return any real results in the NGC cert lookup.)

    How do Weiner medals compare to the coins above in terms of holder size? It's much larger than a regular slab and I have to wrap it with blister-wrap and store it with old Whitman folders and Capitol holders for the SDB.
