<p>[QUOTE="furryfrog02, post: 3876315, member: 41219"]My son was given a grab-bag of stuff today at the Baltimore Whitman show. Inside were a couple of postcards (at a coin show?) and a PCGS Sample Slab with a 2019-D cent encased inside. I'm not 100% sure what the purpose of these things are besides marketing stuff. I was amazed at the coin they decided to waste time/money putting in plastic though. It is covered in spots and scratches. I wonder how long it will take to break down and die the death that all Zincolns eventually face. </p><p><br /></p><p>Are these sample slabs worth hanging onto or are they just kind of a novelty piece of junk?</p><p><br /></p><p>Sorry for the bad pictures.
