Can anyone tell me what's so special about this...

Besides being CAC, and and doily. There's something else special about it. Guess away...

Only US coin with a mermaid on it?

 

Possible, but not the answer I'm looking for.

 

...and a narwhal.

and a mintage of only 10,008?

and the label doesn't say the date of mintage?

 

All good points but that still isn't it.

 

150th anniversary of the founding of Hudson, NY. It's considered one of the rarer commemorative Half Dollars. It was originally issued at $1.00.

 

Great points but still not the answer.

 

I hope your not talking about the dealer that hoarded them.

 

That's not it....

 

HINT.... It has something to do with the slab itself.

 

No date?

 

It's something else...

 

Is it the PCGS logo along the seal/border of the slab, on the bottom?

 

That's not it either.

 

Older slab?

 

No sir. It's something different.

 

What’s the green dead center of the coin?

 

Beats me. Probably what kept it at a 63???? CAC still stickered it.

 

TBH... Even with issues CAC would probably have beaned it for the answer I'm looking for.

 

The upper left hand corner of the slab looks to be slightly deformed.
