I very much regret not purchasing this coin about 10 years ago, as much for the grading certificate as for the coin. In all this time I have not come across another. Described and graded by Leroy Van Allen.

If that can be traced to that coin (which admittedly the picture isn't the best) from the picture could be a CAC gold candidate that combination could be moon money.

basebal21, at the bottom of the certificate under comments it gives the PCGS certification number which matches the coin.

I was on a small screen, thanks for pointing that out. I stand by my other comment though, combined probably moon money for the grade from that, the holder whether or not a cac and if it did hit gold well bless that seller lol
Rest in Peace

That would definitely improve the value of the coin to include that additional certification. The very vast majority of those were tossed out a long time ago.

I knew a dealer that did that sort of thing. Don Romano of Worthy Coin would create a multidimensional grading matrix for surface, eye appeal, strike, and overall grade for every coin he sold through the bid wall. I still have some of these. Maybe I should start typing up some grading certs to send along with coins I sell over ebay so 50 years from now people can post on the hypernet forums.

It appears the date on the cert is 1/11/88 which is within the time frame for a PCGS 1.2 rattler holder (86-89)

Dave700x, twohawks, Cascade and a few others need to see this, I highly recommend cross-posting it to the VAM subforum.

That is cool! I have a 1788 Massachusetts copper graded by Walter Breen, and I bought it because of the grading card and photo.
