I think he has the decimal point one position too far to the right. But of course the slab costs about $3 to buy.
He also has "20 Cents Error Not Wavy Rare!!"

The only thing "Rare and Collectible" would be the drugs he's obviously on, I reckon. :P

Did the twat who came up with the TPG name PCCB check what it also stands for?
According to the Urban Dictionary (online dictionary) the letters PCCB stand for The lack of purpose contained in a small box Very apt for this basement slab.

PCCB = Professional Coin Collection Box.
Made in China and they do 2x2s and suchlike too.
Their website has an English URL but only Chinese language content -I couldn't find an English version and the common translator engines baulked at it.

I bought a 1985 from a gent in Canberra and a couple of days later found one many years ago.

Blast it.

Just had a bit of a look and found about 46 rabbit ears at a rough count and heaps of tick in ear and found 3 of these 2006 with multiple cuds but I still think my 2009 handcuff is the best and still haven't seen anyone else post a pic of one yet :)

I felt really good but cried as I bought one a few days earlier at a rather inflated price.

In my noodling I reckon I have found well in excess of 500 rabbit ears but the 1985 is the second rarest with the 2013 being the rarest.

Yet to find a 2013 but was given one some time ago from a member of this forum.

A sample of my rabbits etc are shown in my Gallery.
