    I've been several conversations regarding this, but never here.

    From what I understand NGC never intentionally printed a green label. They're all brown and turned green. If I'm beating a dead horse lemme know because I'm kinda new here and I still see sellers trying to market the green label as being harder to find. Not true.

    I believe they never had a green label, and its caused by light, etc fading from the the brown label. BUT, it likely is "somewhat more rare" and people do collect things like that. Might be worth a premium...as always something is worth what someone else will buy it for.

    They never had a green label-it is just sun damage to the label. Nope, it is not rare, nor more valuable. The fatty holders tend to have added value over the newer ones as a whole, but once again, it depends upon the coin. That coin, with a gold bean is a very nice one, so it is likely to be pushing MS 66, and has eye appeal. I like the coin.

    Wow. I've never had more than one person agree with me. I've been scolded on a page for spreading false info. It was a coin education page on FB. I spoke to JA about it and he said there never was, yet no one believes what I say :) Thanks guys.

    I’ve had a few. I didn’t realize they were not intended to be green. I’ve had some pcgs green label that were totally faded out though

    I have several of these also. One observation is that these tend to have a better chance of obtaining a CAC sticker. Here is one of my examples. 20190127_Merc_68_obv.jpg

    No correlation with the label. It is the coin that gets the CAC designation, not the label.
