Any current or former TPG graders out there...

This isn't quite a "coin" story, either, but......

 

The guys who handled the slab-sealing knew that I did most of the quality control, in which I checked the encapsulated coins before they were shipped out.

 

I examined the coins themselves, as well as the holders and information on the grading labels, etc.

 

One day, I was going through a box of coins, and in one of the holders, nicely sealed, I might add, was a large roach. No coin, just a roach, that the guys had acquired and slabbed, to play a joke on me. I thought it was pretty darned funny.

 

Was it a Deep Cameo Full Roach or just an ordinary one?
