<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Conder101, post: 1071760, member: 66&quot;]News flash, the world ended two years ago when these came out.&nbsp; You&#039;re just getting around to noticing it.&nbsp; I have one in the reference set, but it is just a novelty slab.</p><p><br /></p><p>I don&#039;t have mine close at hand so I can&#039;t check to see if they were issued by CU or not.&nbsp; From time to time Collectors Universe makes a deal with someone for some special slabs and they use PCGS shells to produce them but with the Collectors Universe logo on the back instead of PCGS. (PCGS being owned by CU doesn&#039;t really have much choice whether or not to go along with it.)&nbsp; The most famous of the special slabs were the original 9/11 &quot;Death coin&quot; slabs back in 2001.&nbsp; PCGS caught all the flak over them but they were made by Collectors Universe not PCGS.&nbsp; About six months later PCGS did jump into the market with their own version though.</p><p><br /></p><p>And is there anything wrong with collecting slabs?&nbsp; <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
