    HAHAHAHAHAA!

    I have a small bit of knowledge, but no computer savvy. I would certainly not avoid involvement and help . . but I need some computer savvy. Ever noticed Drunner doesn't post pix??

    There is a reason for that. I just got a cellphone last week! Last 3 in the USA without one . . I caved at last.

    Also Tim . . .how much actually needs to be done? I can only see a few adjustments . . certainly no need to redo the entire thing.

    Also . .anyone seen the slab book that is out there??? Would that help?

    Tommy .

    Rattler . . fun but no premium.

    PCGS 2.0 (no PCGS on the obverse at the top of the insert) . .no premium, but cool.

    The PCGS generations needs some additions, but is generally in better shape than the NGC one ATS (lots missing there).

    For the PCGS generations, some obvious additions are the white label rattler, the most recent 2011 new hologram, text placement variations on some of the 1990s slabs, PCGS secure, plus a few hologram changes in the last decade that weren't captured.

    I like the idea of updating it for both completeness, and to be a more useful tool for folks to tell if they have an obscure (but real) slab, or a cheesy Chinese fake slab.

    Wasn't thinking of a wholesale revision - just an update as slabs are changed by PCGS.

    Probably a greater need for samples than the regular series??

    Update on which slabs are considered rare?? Split out the doilies, for example, based on the label style, etc.

    1tommy - "1.0" rattler, probably should be called 1.5, the right one a 2.0. image

    Airplanenut might know if anyone has taken over Cameron's sampleslabs.com efforts.

    Conder101 did publish a slab book several years ago, but I don't know if he has any plans of publishing an updated edition. He's actvie ATS, why don't you ask him?

    Samples would be the old Cammy connection, and I don't think there is much new to add to that.

    For PCGS Generations, Conder is the guy. To try to update something without him would be ridiculous. We need to ask him to update. Not much to update, but I believe more could come from face-to-face with Don Willis or David Hall to clear up some questions on the early days. Even John Albanese could have some insights.

    Would love to see Conder do it, if the drive is still there.

    Quite a few sample slabs since the latest update, also need to figure out where to tuck the Collectors Club and Luncheon slabs along with other misc. issues.

    Lakesammman,

    I'm over 50 and I have to say that it's pretty easy to find Conder101 ATS, but you can look for the rest of your life and not find Condor! image

    Wouldn't CC and Luncheon Slabs fall under Slab Types which would be different than Generation?
