I'm trying to figure out when the switch from green labels to blue labels was. Does anybody know how the cert #s run with relation to that? What is your highest PCGS cert # in a green label holder? Thanks for any info ... George

According to this thread, the switch to the PCGS 6 was November of 1998.
hope this helps.

<< <i>PCGS went from green label to blue label in the fall of 1998. I sent in a Columbian half in September, 1998 when they were still using green labels and received it back sometime in October, 1998 with a blue label. It was the first blue label that I had seen and the first that any other dealer whom I knew at the time had seen. Its cert number is 5410875. >>
WOW you can remember back to 1998, I can't even remembered what I ate for breakfast

<< <i>One other thing to mention is that PCGS does not go in numerical order when giving out cert numbers. They use blocks of numbers that can jump around. One example is a Connecticut commem that I have in a PCGS rattler holder with cert number 7332041, which is decidedly much higher than the previously mentioned Columbian commem. >>
Helpful information, thank you guys. Do you think it is a safe bet, then, that any eight-digit cert # (with no leading zero as in 07231941) is a blue label? Maybe I should rephrase my question as, what is the lowest cert # in a blue label? Thanks again.

<< <i>The lowest blue cert number that I have is a seven digit number beginning with 27. I do not own any eight digit cert numbers that are prior to the blue certs, but that of course does not preclude their existance. >>
I'd guess that when they ran out of unique 7 digit numbers, they went to 8. Are the ones starting with 0 considered to be the first 8 digit numbers?

No. Any coin I submit in Long Beach comes back starting with a 06...
