No, it was on GreatCollections. They have been getting strong money lately on there. They are really developing a following. The price was insane! I would have considered possibly 1/4th of that.

I just bought this today. (Sellers pic and no I don’t have a pic of the reverse). Anyone want to guess the holder premium? This coin retails for $100. But there’s something special about this holder.
That looks like quite the score! I'm guessing you got it for slightly above retail at $125 and will get at least $1,500 for it (and quite possibly over $2k).
So I paid $1350 for the coin. It was not on the census of Gen 1.0 holders, so it’s a new discovery. Definitely a gold CAC candidate, even from the poor picture. There are less than 50 Gen 1.0 holders known, and this was so special I had to offer strong.
Not the absolute steal I had guessed but still a below market price for a rare holder with a stunning coin (last one of these I saw had a Franklin with milk spots and still went for more than you paid for this coin).
Spoiler alert, I have 3 gen 1.0 that are not on the census and 2 gen 1.1. Apparently the Gen 1.0 were used the first 1-3 days PCGS began then Gen 1.1 was used for around 2 weeks after that until the correct shipment of paper inserts arrived for them. But anyway.... 5 previously unknown coins/holders will be in my hands in the next week or two!
Very nice. That's the only old PCGS slab that I don't have a specimen of. Currently less than 50 known out of what I suspect was a production of around 800 or so slabs
I’ll try to post all of them once I get them in hand and properly photographed. Do you have a Gen 1.1? The ones that start with #1081 and have the white label but the slightly different dot matrix?
