Message:: [QUOTE="Conder101, post: 4896654, member: 66"]After Amos Press bought ANACS in 1990, their first holograms were the small red A's.  These had no barcodes.  The barcodes were added in 91 or 92 and had 17 digits.  In 1997 the size or the A's were increased and the color changed (to me they appear silver gray, some others have called them green.)  in April 2000 the barcode was increased to 19 characters.  There was a change in the font of the front label text in August of 2005,  After Feb 2006 the small size slab was only used for problem coins and has blue ANACS logo under print on the front label (there are three different varieties of these), and a new label style was introduced.  (these were the first slabs of which fakes were detected in March of 2007)  In September 2007 the small size slabs were discontinued.[/QUOTE]
