    This one for sale by a Canadian Seller- I sent him PMs explaining the issues, he cancelled the auction (error in the listing) and relists with a shorter auction time and an opportunity to make an offer.

    This is the 4th different cert I have documented they have used for ’81-CCs- it has an auction archive listed with images.

    Whack-a-mole is right. Now that they've got the slabs figured out, they can make certs by the bucket-load with whatever numbers you like. Bummer.
