[QUOTE="kanga, post: 939270, member: 9270"]And make sure as much as possible that the background is a [U]non-reflective[/U] black or dark grey. You don't want a light-colored background overpowering the light reflecting from the coin. PCGS slabs are nice because they are translucent and a black background shows through well. NGC slabs are a pain because of the white insert. I cut a hole in a piece of [U]non-reflective[/U] black paper and use it to mask out as much of the white insert as reasonable possible.[/QUOTE]
