is this authentic or no?

    Look at this ebay item, am I way off base or does the NGC label appear to not be authentic. I remember seeing that the dash between the numbers on an authentic NGC label has a "tail" to it like it is at an angle. This appears to be straighter. Also the hologram appears off. Or is this just an older version of the NGC labels. Hope to not make anyone upset. I am new to this whole coin thing and I am just trying to learn.

    Thanks!

    I just want to re-iterate...I do not mean to offend anyone. I am just trying to gain a little more knowledge, so that I do not make too many purchase mistakes, as I am very new to this.

    I see absolutely nothing awry comparing it to my slab of the same generation. I don't know what you mean "a "tail" to it like it is at an angle", but that dash looks identical to mine as does the hologram.

    From what I see it looks good, and this generation slab is a couple generations before the one that was being counterfeited. That isn't to say that they couldn't go back and do an older one but so far none have been reported.
