[QUOTE="razorblaydesjr, post: 2241784, member: 74094"]It's a label that's been printed on a transparent strip. It is not photoshopped. I don't like how bold he made his label at all, but this practice is fairly common. I've seen highly reputable Dealers sell coins with these same type added stickers on the slabs. Also, I bought an inexpensive Brother's label maker that plugs into my computer and I print and add information to slabs all the time. If I find a Snow variety, DDO, VAM, etc... I'll slap my label on it instead of paying shipping/ins/and variety fees to have it printed on a label from a TPG. It's much more economical and I can add additional information that the TPG's won't provide. I personally find that labeling can be very helpful and eye appealing for my collection.
