Yes, it is.

It is and is collectible for those that like plastic... seriously...it is.

That holder is what they call a Regency holder in the slab collector world. I had already made a thread about it on both the liteside and darkside.

Interesting - I have never seen one of these before.

Wow, a Regency holder.

Those are pretty rare. The plastic is actually worth some money, I believe.

I've only seen one ever, when browsing at shows.

Here is a thread with pics of some others. (Warning Liteside with one darkside.)

From another thread were Frank posted "Here's a cute one from the GSAGUY collection - The colors of the coin didn't get captured properly, but it is gorgeous!"

Is that what they used to call a "boat slab?" I have seen on or two of these, but that has been a loooong time ago!

It's a Regency slab, though you might have heard me call it a "boat slab". That's the name I used to use before I knew what they were called.

You're right, it was you I heard that from.

I wonder who thought that these oversized, funky shaped slabs would be a good idea?

Is this a real PCGS slab??
