CIII Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 The database number on this coin is different than the coin in the slab. Has anyone seen this before? The number corresponds to a 1959 coin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greenstang Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 If I remember correctly, those were sample slabs that NGC had given out at a coin show or shows. I believe the numbers may have just been random. Perhaps NGC or someone else could shed more light on this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CIII Posted March 2, 2021 Author Share Posted March 2, 2021 Very odd. I have several sample slab coins and all have the correct coin information in regards to the database number. This is, literally, the first coin that did not match the db information. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conder101 Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 The serial numbers on sample slab can not always be trusted. There are some examples of multiple slabs all having the same number. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
