Dearborn Moderator United States 99577 Posts	Posted 01/03/2023 6:50 pm Very nice pictures, and with the close-up images you can see that they are incuse, Also they are far too straight to be cracks. These marks are scratches. But fear not, I think I do see one die crack on the obverse - it runs east/west at the top of the head... Collecting since 1972.

silviosi Pillar of the Community Canada 6244 Posts	Posted 01/03/2023 9:44 pm Quote: Generation 3.0 slab - Uncommon. Produced Dec 1987 - Aug 1989. This holder features a new front label with a brown or green border & the outside rear gold logo. Green border is less common of the two. Though this holder was produced for nearly two years, it is not seen often and usually commands a premium price. If they miss with the coin cert, at least you has a slab who command a nice premium almost because it is the green borders. PS: the Slab has more value then the coin.
