Collectors Club Slabs

I have an '04 PCGS Collectors Club Edition ASE...its graded MS69...yet, there is no cert # on the slab anywhere (I'm sure you all know that, which is why I ask). Is it possible that this coin IS or CAN be counted towards the population, or....basically, whats the deal? Can it go back and get certified MS69, cert #, etc, and IF it did, would it lose the 'pedigree', if you want to call it that? Thanx for the help!

  • With all the brain power, inside info....noone can answer this question? Is it a job for PCGS to answer thenselves? Its not life or death, I;ll just crack it out if its not a 'real' 69 (by real, if it doesnt have a cert # and is not in the system as such, is it really an MS69)...kinda like the tree falling in the woods, and if noone is there, does it make a sound....or some shyte like that.....

    One last call....anybody?? I'll have to make that toll free call to find out if noone here can...thanx...I think? image

    They gave those away free with CU membership so it is what it is. I have two of them. Just leave it as is.

    Do Collectors Club slabs participate in the pop / registry or not? I believe some of them do have a number but a very different looking one?

    No. If there is NO cert number it can't get in the Registry. If you PM me the number I'll ty to add it.

  • Ok, I have an image, which shows NO cert # on the front or back.....ANY coments, advice, whatever, would be appreciated. I just want to know if, where this isnt in the database, I should send it in and get it graded for real, crack it out and put it in my ASE tubes (basically my junk/bullino silver pile). Thanx in advance to anyone who replies..this has me stumped=, and I waited too long to call PCGS, as its 5:05 their time now, and you KNOW they are all outta there.....

    Sorry about the glare, wasnt taking a pic to show the coin itself, just thought it more important that the insert could be seen.

    So, IS this a real MS69, or..........the curiosity is bugging me, and now I will have to wait till Monday to call PCGS if noone can help me.....someone help me please? LOL Thanx!

    There is no way to add these to the registry.

    You might contact customer service to see if they would re-slab it with a serial number. Might cost you the $10 fee + shipping. You might see if they can attribute the Collectors Club on the label as well.
  • BECOKA....its not that I am interested in adding it to a Registry set...I just want to know if its no more valuable as a crack out to be put in my bullion pile. Plus, if I DO decide to crack it out, would I still get my $0.50 if I sent in the cert? Its just a matter of 'If I crack it out, will it do something to the pops?'. I honestly dont see it being a 69, as there ARE just a few 'milk spots' beginning. So, just looking for options....its driving me crazy, almost...I get the feeling that, where there is no cert, its not in the database, if I cracked it out, its no big deal...BUT, on the other hand, should I send it back to PCGS, grade guarantee, and all that....its puzzling....and I need HELP..(no wise cracks either! lol).

    If there are milk spots forming your best bet for improving the value is to send it in under spot review, get the numismatic value back from PCGS and the will return the coin for your bullion pile.

    Otherwise these slabs do not have much if any value above normally slabbed ones with serial numbers. You would literally have to check with PCGS about the pops. In over two years here I have not heard anything about these being in or out of the population reports. I sold my collectors slab on e-bay because I saw little use for it. It also brought about the same amount of money as a regularly slabbed 2004.

    You can always crack them out and submit, but collector slabs such as these and NGC are mostly souvenir slabs.
