    can't really find any information about them and have seen numerous coins from this "company" for sale in the last few week by several well known sellers (30k+ sales/100%fb). As a matter of fact there is one in particular I will buy instantly once I know this isn't a some chinese fake company... this is an example of their "slab/coa"
    Please I need any info ASAP, I really want this coin (not the one shown)... (may bid anyway as he has 30day full returns lol)

    Rubbish, probably from some profiteering boiler room operation. They obviously did not get their start with a numismatic heart, as they don't even know who designed the coin.

    The flip that's holding the coin looks like it might be PVC, so be careful. If it's soft and pliable, you may have a potential problem
