ANACS discontinued the holder style that was being faked around June 2007 and changed all their holders in Sept 2007. We notified NGC of the first fake NGC slabs in August of 2007.

I had been been wondering for a long time why fake slabs hadn't shown up yet. The 1989 fake PCGS slabs showed that it was possible, and the fake ICG shells that were produced in 2002 should have also been a warning. (The fake ICG shells were never used to make fake ICG slabs, they were made by another company to put their product in. Fast action by Cameron Kiefer, myself, and ICG got the other companies product shut down in less than a week.
