On the slab it reads... 2919.64/03654189 I checked the PCGS verification site and could NOT find any coins with the number 2919 on the list for the 1¢ coins. Most likely should be 2920. I proceded to do the verification using the serial number and the following comes up. Cert Verification #: 03654189 Date, mintmark: 1969-S Denomination: 1C Variety: N/A Pedigree: Country: The United States of America Grade: MS64RB So it's not a Double Die variety as it should be listed here.
