<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Conder101, post: 2166609, member: 66&quot;]It IS an older company.&nbsp; This what I had on the company in the book</p><p><br /></p><p>ANICS (American Numismatic Institute Certification Service)&nbsp; Active in 1987 to 1989 it used a photo-certificate based on that of ANACS with a background of yellow squares on the label. One variety seen</p><p><br /></p><p>ANICS 1&nbsp;&nbsp; Similar to ANACS 5 but photos are smaller.&nbsp; To&nbsp; compensate for this, more of the label is folded over the front of the certificate.&nbsp; Background of yellow rectangles on label.&nbsp; Used from 1987 to 1989? (Copyright on the back is 1987 but every example seen so far have been dated 5/15/89.)&nbsp; The certificates are inconsistent though as to the size of the photographs.&nbsp; While the coin images are kept to the actual size of the coins, the area around the coins is not kept cropped&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; to the same size so the amount of the label visible on the front varies.&nbsp; The certificate shown here shows the full name and address of the company on the front of the label.&nbsp; I have two others.&nbsp; One shows every thing seen here plus the bottom line of the back label, the other has everything except the phone number on the back of the label.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>You will notice that the certificate shown by the OP has the images even larger than on the ones I have and has even less of the front label showing on the front. (None of the company name and address or phone number is visible on the front label.)&nbsp; Also note that like every other one I have seen this one is also dated 5/15/89.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
