<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dreamer94, post: 346466, member: 6449&quot;]If I&#039;m not mistaken, &quot;Early Releases&quot; is NGC&#039;s replacement for &quot;First Strikes&quot;.&nbsp; They are coins that were shipped early from the mint, but not different in any way; i.e. not necessarily minted earlier.&nbsp; I don&#039;t believe any of the services give bullion coins a special designation.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>PCGS is still using &quot;First Strikes&quot; for a number of different series, including First Spouse gold coins.&nbsp; Check listings on ebay and you&#039;ll see the premium being charged for them or for mint-sealed boxes that are &quot;First Strike&quot; eligible.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
