The shells are those developed by a company called Certified Silver Investments. CSI started off years ago marketing NGC look alike slabs and then began their own slabbing service using this slab shell design. Their slabbing service did not last long, and they became a marketer of the shells to various other fourth tier services. At least somewhere between ten and fifteen other &quot;services&quot; have used this slab shell.&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>Phun Phact: If you tap these holders just right on the edge, you can open them up. There is also a pinhole in the plastic for the same purpose. They hold together by friction of the inner and outer rounded surfaces.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Now an MS67 &#039;77 Ike is a rare item.
