<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 8128028, member: 112&quot;]Well, I wasn&#039;t confused at until ya posted that ! <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie9" alt=":eek:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />&nbsp; LOL !</p><p><br /></p><p>But I think [USER=66]@Conder101[/USER]&nbsp; may be able to help explain and confirm it for us.</p><p><br /></p><p>Ya see, that pic is of an old slab, used 1986-89, if I am correct. I believe it is what PCGS calls Gen. 1.2, and that slab had the reverse side of the slab made upside down from the obv. So when ya turn the slab and can see the label printing upright as we see it in that pic, we&#039;re not really seeing what we think we&#039;re seeing.</p><p><br /></p><p>When you do a medal turn with the slab, the rev of the coin is actually going to be upside down. So if the obv was turned a bit and oriented in that slab correctly, then the rev of the coin would be upside down, because it would be turned too. And it would look like this, and it would be flying level.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://us.v-cdn.net/6027503/uploads/editor/6l/fppsq6b0jqef.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Now that&#039;s not the right slab, that&#039;s Gen. 1.2, but they -</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://forums.collectors.com/discussion/918775/pcgs-generations-updated-6-4-21" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://forums.collectors.com/discussion/918775/pcgs-generations-updated-6-4-21" rel="nofollow">https://forums.collectors.com/discussion/918775/pcgs-generations-updated-6-4-21</a></p><p><br /></p><p>- don&#039;t provide a pic of Gen. 1.1 in that thread.
