<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Sunbird, post: 7978180, member: 116324&quot;]Hi all – I&#039;m trying to get a visual on what kind of <i>side view</i> grading service slabs give you. I don&#039;t own any slabbed coins yet, so I&#039;m looking for, ideally, some kind of 3D rotating view of slabbed coins from the usual suspects (NGC, PCGS, ICG, et al), like the <a href="https://www.ford.com/suvs/bronco-sport" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.ford.com/suvs/bronco-sport" rel="nofollow">click-and-drag 3D viewers</a> on carmaker websites. Or just photos of the side view of the slab. With the photos I see at bullion dealers like JM Bullion I can&#039;t get a sense of the side view of the slab, or the depth of the rim ridges.</p><p><br /></p><p>The closest thing I&#039;ve found is <a href="https://www.ngccoin.com/services/edgeview-examine.aspx" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.ngccoin.com/services/edgeview-examine.aspx" rel="nofollow">this illustration</a> of the <b>NGC EdgeView Holder</b>, but it doesn&#039;t expose the side view.</p><p><br /></p><p>How much of the rim can you see in normal slabs? From photos it looks like the slab seams might obstruct the rim view. Are they popping out the coin on the front or back of the slab so that you can see the full rim surface? The existence of NGC&#039;s EdgeView Holder implies that normal slabs don&#039;t give you a good view of the rim. Can you point me to some photos or 3D viewers that expose the sides?</p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
