Could just be an older more rudimentary PCGS holder. But the angle on the coin is way off.

I have not seen a PCGS holder with the barcode on the back. I'm sure Condor can help.

It looks fine. That holder was used several slab generations ago.

Coins can rotate in their holders. Perfectly normal.

Looks legit to me. The one thing that does feel off is that it's graded AU53. Looks a lot nicer than AU53 to me.

I have a 1901-O MS65 Morgan silver dollar in same kind of holder with bar code on reverse side.

Don't know what to say about position coin is in...but slab looks good to me.

I deal with PCGS holders A TON. I think it is just the lighting and the camera's picture, not the coin. Perfectly fine.

The other thing I look at is the sellers feedback score and amount of sales. This guy is very established, so again, I think it's legit. ;-)
