<p>[QUOTE="fretboard, post: 4674301, member: 19765"]I was desperately looking for one of these coins as they are rare, very rare! There were only 23,294 minted in Philly and that was 171 years ago. Both NGC and PCGS together have only graded less than 250 so it's quite a rarity. Yes, I know not everyone has their coins graded so there could be more but I don't think there's a lot more. It's also a California Gold Rush year so I've been wanting one for quite awhile! Unfortunately, this one has damage and I don't normally buy coins with damage but I was willing to chance with this one and I have no regrets! <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> I'm wondering about the slab though, anyone ever see one like this? Looks like a PCGS slab but I don't remember them ever using an unnamed yellow slab ever. It's sealed just like a PCGS slab so I doubt it was done at home. Anyone know??</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1151649[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1151650[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1151651[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1151652[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1151653[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1151654[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1151655[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1151657[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
