They are nothing more then a stinking rigid OPEN edge sleeve!!! sure the open edge has a sticker covering 90% of it ... the note wont fall out, but air, moisture, smoke .. basically any contaminate... can and will find its way to the note :( oh yeah.. i cut all 6 web-notes out of the slabs. having them slabbed added nothing to the value of the note! I think i might stick with PMG for slabbed notes simply becuase (it appears) they do a slightly better job protecting the note![/QUOTE]
