NGC slab???

That's the brand new slab! It comes with or without the Edgeview insert, at NGC's discretion.

Yes I have seen that alot on ebay great looking slab for gold coins, you can see the edge on the coin

I think I am gong to like edgeview. I like the new holder, hologram etc but don't have any edgeview in hand. Just posted NGC image of my first and I think it does look great. As people say, it lets the light in..

Thanks for the info. I haven't seen any of the new ones that didn't have the tabs.

Wow !! I really like the new clear inserts for smaller coins.

We all knew exactly who you were referring to in order to help identify this NCG holder, but I was once again compelled to identify the correct entity.

 

I would think by now he responds to both.

[physics-fan3.14]

Hehe I can never remember which he is supposed to be, so I just use both interchangeably. That is one ugly bird, and I really hope Mike shares no resemblance.

I wish it was for real, those slabs with the clear insert are only for different sized coins. Like fractional coins or tokens.

I would love to have a fractional gold Buffalo in one of these. (thumbs u

At the '09 Luncheon , ' Mad Marty ' asked the question I usually ask about why NGC doesn't offer the clear insert as an option and Scott Schecter said it was not going to happen because the white insert is the 'NGC Trademark' . Bummer....I'd send in at least 30 of my smaller coins for re-holder right away if they would do this. They can obviously get these gaskets/inserts in any size if they put just about anything slab-able in the NCS holders with the clear inserts .

 

Well , the white inserts do look good for some fo the larger coins , but small stuf gets lost in inserts . I like the new prong holder inserts but again , not with the smaller coins ( dime and below) .

 

I was about to start looking for another submission form until I re-read the whole post and followed the links.

Bummer.

Man, that is a bummer. I would love to have some of my smaller coins slabbed with the clear insert...

[Conder101]

Yes I do answer to both although I would rather not be thought of as an ugly carrion eater. I prefer my meals at the roadside diner, not just the roadside.

 

As mentioned the slab from the original post is from the generation before they expanded the edge-view to all coins and it is rapidly being phased out. All denomination are supposed to be in the new edge view slabs by sometime next month.

 

Wow !! I really like the new clear inserts for smaller coins.

They have been using those clear inserts for over four years but only on California Fractionals and some very small world coins.

 

Frankly not using them for the smaller US coins is a little silly since they do use them in thier multi-coin holders because all the holes are the same size and the use the clear inserts to put the smaller coins in the large holes.
