<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Conder101, post: 1233451, member: 66&quot;]I liked the article (Your articles are encouraging me to get back into the samples slabs more).&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>The multi-coin Luncheon slab I would catalog more as a Presentation slab, but I would double reference it because it does say Sample on the label.&nbsp; I call it a Presentation slab because it wasn&#039;t intended so much to advertise the NGC multi-coin holder as to be a gift only presented to those people who attended the luncheon.&nbsp; A true sample would have been distributed to the public on the show floor.&nbsp; These never were.</p><p><br /></p><p>The Guitar slab I would catalog as an Advertising slab because it really isn&#039;t promoting the NGC product as is is advertising the 2006 FUN convention.&nbsp; There were only 500 of these slabs produced, but there are a lot more than 500 of the guitar coins.&nbsp;&nbsp; There were two different advertising slab for the FUN convention that year, the guitar coin, and one using the Florida state quarter.&nbsp; Many of the state quarter slabs are also signed by one of the FUN officers.&nbsp; Both of them have the bold orange labels common to the FUN convention.&nbsp; The guitar slabs were distributed to the first 100 people entering the show each of the five days that it ran. (There were several different guitars in the set produced by Somalia and it is possible that each day may have been a different guitar.&nbsp; I don&#039;t know for sure)&nbsp; They were handed out by the FUN staff not NGC, as were the state quarter pieces.&nbsp; The numbering was done that way so as to not imply that any one slab was better than the others.&nbsp; There is no first slab, second slab, third slab etc each of them is simply one of the 500 slabs made.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
