<p>[QUOTE="Vess1, post: 26439602, member: 13650"]This won't help you on this one and I may be playing captain obvious here but depending on how new the slab is, NGC started automatically photographing everything that goes through there at a certain point. I don't know the exact date but anything with the prong holders has a chance of being in their system and anything with the newer style prong/edgeview cores will be on their website. Its under Resources/Verification. You can enter in the slab number and grade and you'll get a halfway decent image of front and back. It's just their basic photos, not high quality that was paid for but can give you a more realistic idea of how coins look having a second photograph/lighting type. Also verifies it's what they had in their possession vs what's in the slab by verifying minor imperfections. </p><p><br /></p><p> You may already know. I always use them as an extra online photo resource when i can.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
