Is this a legitimate PCGS label?

    Likely not. The certification number appears to be the wrong font.

    It appears to be legitimate to me. You can see labels that appear to be the same (what I think is a 4th generation label) on the HA website.

    physics-fan3.14 You got any more of them.... prooflikes?

    Holy freaking cow. How could you possibly compare that to the linked genuine slab and look at it for more than approximaly 0.24 seconds and think that is genuine? It bears ABSOLUTELY NO RESEMBLANCE TO THE SLAB YOU LINKED AT ALL.

    This is 100% fake.

    Thank you for your opinion. I'm not an expert, but I believe it is authentic and is a gen 4.0 slab. Please take a look at what @ddddd said below.

    I didn't post a link. Rather, I referenced a source for comparison. However, here is a link: https://coins.ha.com/itm/modern-bul...-15311.s?ic4=ListView-ShortDescription-071515

    As you can see, the casing is VERY similar, if not exact. I won't say, with abolute certaintly, that it is real - but I would venture a guess that it is.

    It stands to reason that they would produce multiples of any modern counterfeit, so yes, you could reason that it is indicitive of others. However, as indicated in my previous posts, I do not beleive this to be a fake. Heritage is typically quite compitent and I wouldn't think they'd pass off as many similar looking slabs as they have if this were indeed a counterfit.

    It's real and this is a gen 4.0. When reading the description from PCGS, they mention that certain series, including Modern Bullion (like this Eagle), did not include a series or coin number.

    It's not fake. Please read the details on the PCGS link about the Gen 4.0 slab and see the Heritage link of the same type of holder. I have owned PCGS coins with this label and you can find more examples on eBay and other auction archives.
