PCGS/NGC Holders. Is there a site that lists their progression through the years?

Title says it all folks. Is there a site/sites that show pictures of the progression of the TPG's holders from inception to real time now? The only thing I can seem to find is sample slabs.

I bet if there were a financial incentive someone might build such a site.:devil:

 

Yeah. This is what I turned up too: http://www.sampleslabs.com/pcgs.html

You could ask over at the PCGS site. NGC also has chat forums, I don't know if they are very informative.

 

The site http://www.sampleslabs.com/ uses sample slab to track the evolution of the holder itself. The plastic, label color, font, data, etc. but they do not allow identification by month/year, which would be very helpful.

 

With the amount of members on this forum, we could probably make our own page. This would be informative and also help beginners in the hobby, Im shocked that there is not more information on this.

 

Conder would have them if anyone does.

I have had this site bookmarked for over a year on the NGC site. I have found it very helpful.

Conder has the largest collection of slab varieties that I know of, and if you want to know anything about years of when certain styles were used, I would ask him or read through some of his previous threads.

 

Hopefully Conder will check in. The reason I ask is because today I received an Alabama Centennial half dollar in a PCGS slab that I've never seen before. It doesn't seem to be on any of the sample slab sites so I'm thinkin' it might be (maybe?) the newest slab? I'll get a pic of it up tomorrow, but to describe it......it's like an NGC edge view holder but the prongs are clear plastic.

Oh, and thanks for the responses guys.......

 

I have seen these and believe they are relatively new. Your classic commemorative is probably recently slabbed. Looking forward to the pics. TC

 

Here's the PCGS slab history from Conder.

Greenie, Conder can correct me if I'm mistaken, but I believe the PCGS version of the EdgeView was first marketed in Europe before being introduced here in the States.

Picture folks........

 

You would think that the company itself (PCGS, NGC) would have a history of their slabbiness.....

Thanks Bill, Owle, Lance and BRG for the links.

 

OK, thanks Doug. If it's been out for so long how come you don't see that many? This is my first encounter.
