I sometimes wonder about other coins that do not have all the useful information on the slabs. It should be on there at least on the silver and gold.

I did not say this is not a rare coin. I pay third party authentication/grading services a good fee for full, correct info on the slab label, including the metal alloy and fineness of a gold coin like this (4.24 grams of what alloy?). There is more than enough room for more important numismatic info on the labels. Saying something like “of course it’s gold” doesn’t make the cut!

Who cares? This is an absolute rarity. The gold content or purity is irrelevant on the holder.
