    I just looked, and I do own a F12 graded 1794 Piacenza 10 Soldi -- with a horse. :)

    But, I don't have good images of it. Just these old images in my NGC set (that need to be redone).

    I'm not aware of it, but I figured everyone has some really lowball coins they keep because they are so nice for the grade, or special in some way.

    There might be some lower grades sitting around here, but this one is my favorite. Not because it's special, or because it's particularly nice for its grade. Only because the plastic is likely worth more than the coin itself.

    I'm sure we've all seen our share of these inexplicably holdered coins. When encountered, they are likely tossed to the wholesale box with a chuckle. Or perhaps relegated to that section of the store labeled “for kids”. But I implore you to share a moment, however brief, with these “undesirable” anomalies. For, whatever the circumstances which lead to this coins encapsulation, (whether it be a sorting error or extremely optimistic submitter) the coin before you has beaten the odds. It has dared to challenge its station, and won. It has cast off the chains of triviality. Think of it, not as the moon cast shadow of its betters. Rather, as the down trodden hero who achieved that which was unachievable. After all, is that not the American Dream? To start with nothing, and rise… to, still, pretty much nothing in a much shinier container?

    I'm curious. I have a silver three cent piece that is worn so thin that it has a hole in it. Would it still grade, or would it get body-bagged as being holed?

    But the TPG plastic holds the coin so tight, and makes it feel so safe and special, think of the slab as a mother bear, and your coin as a cute little cub. You don't want to send that cub off into the dangerous world all alone and exposed, do you? :arghh:
