CuKevin

Collectors of vintage and sample slabs, we have another piece of plastic for you!

Protect and display your slabs in the new Zircon View for the cost of a Reholder... but you cannot Reholder a Doily.

Available here or on our website for $25: www.ZirconCases.com

Edited to add: Pictured here is the current design of the case with a MUCH smaller logo. @braddick thank you for pointing out the original photo had a large logo prototype pictured.

That is a great idea.
Nice looking case!
This would be perfect for protecting the OGH slabs along with NGC early editions.

Very cool idea to highlight coins in your showcase too/keep rare holder coins nice while you travel.

Apologies that I don’t know how to shrink photos when posting them.

Look Ma, No Screws!

The Zircon View fits all standard size PCGS, NGC, and CACG holders. Increase the snug fit of smaller slabs, such as Rattlers, with a “slab pocket”.

First prototypes hot off the 3D printing press!

Long Beach is already here!?

It was great to chat with several forum members at Long Beach. Saw a couple of vintage slab dealers rocking the Zircon Cases too! Thanks for the support!! And glad you’re loving the holders!

I do not yet have a precise answer, but it is being manufactured now. After a couple rounds of prototyping with a few friends as "beta testers", a design has been settled on.

The U-lid and base have strong rare earth magnets to keep the slab securely inside while allowing for ease of swapping slabs in and out of the case.

Appreciate the questions. Always happy to answer more.

Waiting for the announcement that ZirconCases has expanded into grading the slabs themselves.

Someone is eventually going to grade the slabs.
I’ve also been waiting for this announcement for the past 5 or so years. Good thing I haven’t been holding my breath 😆

In hand, these are REALLY well made - on my desk currently (temporarily .....).

I am glad you are enjoying your case! The primary goals were a high quality, highly durable, and ultra clear case that people would actually want to use for display and protection of their coins/slabs.

That's an incredible Hawaii cent by the way!! I know just how hard it is to find one that looks like that.

Can you expand on this answer?

From the photos it looks like the slab is free to rattle around inside the case.

The case fits all standard sized PCGS, NGC, and CACG slabs plus all of the ANACS and ICG holders I have tried. Furthermore, even for the same TPG and generation of slab, the external dimensions can be quite varied.

Because of this, there is some extra space no matter the slab. We primarily remedy this with a thin plastic sleeve that nearly or entirely eliminates the larger NGC and PCGS slabs moving around. For very small slabs, like the PCGS Rattler or ANACS Soapbox, we made an additional "gasket" (shown above in red and green) to hold them in place.

Feel free to PM me with questions as well since I can only reply to my BST post once per day.

I imagine these cases are PVC free?

Absolutely! Additionally, acrylic is considered archival quality.

CuKevin

It was great to see so many of you at Long Beach! The sample and vintage market was thriving on the floor with GreatCollections offering a collection of vintage slabs, David Schwager sharing a styrofoam NGC box, and Real American Treasure with not one but SEVERAL first generation PCGS and NGC slabs!

The next show will be here before you know it!!

I don’t do any social media, I don’t like people but I do like your cases 😁

Did you happen to make the Case for the Regency Slab in the above Picture?

I did not, that is encased in a second PCGS slab. The second outer slab was made specifically because PCGS would not put a numerical grade on the engraved presentation piece Morgan dollars at the time the Regency holder existed. The new outer slab has a numerical grade.

I don’t know if PCGS would put this second slab around another Regency without similar reason.

If there was enough interest I could make a Regency size Zircon Case.

Are your Zircon holders then made of zirconium silicate mineral found in small quantities in many rocks?

What would be your ETA on 50 units?
