Great find. I had the same questions as dearborn. Someday when I can spend time in coin shops, I may have to try and pick some as well and decide to reholder or not.

Do you plan to re holder it or do you like the older PCGS green labels?

Yes, I'm going to yell here: NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO............. Those holders are classic IMHO. I personally would leave it in that old green labeled holder. Ok.... I'm done now.
Now, to your coin, BEAUTIFUL RPM there! No doubt that one is very easy to see. I love it.

Thanks guys. This is my first green holder error coin, so I'll probably keep it as is. I have sold a few and they definitely have a following. If it were a really high book value coin and I wanted to sell, I would consider it.

Very nice! And yes, so easy to spot I don't even pick quarters but think I have one as well. Some varieties are just so honkin' nice they just jump out at you.

New to the community and first post. Very nice pick up. Agree with others about keeping in OGH slab. There is a certainly elegance to those original holders.

Great find. Congrats.

(As to re-slabbing to get the variety number, I got tired of my sloppy handwriting on a piece of tape to sticker. I decided to use clear labels to add a variety designation to some slabs. It takes some playing around and experimenting with placement but looks good with the clear label, and with a little more effort, it can look better.

Here's an example. (Notice the left side of the strip. I've turned the label on itself to make it easier to remove if need be.)
