Except the inserts on the Coin World slabs are black and have the Coin World logo on both the obverse and reverse. Looks more like an Anacs slab to me.

ANACS and CW slabs are basically the same (minus the logo)- I think CW slabs can be white.
Coinworlds slab is different and have a different color insert than this. There logo is not molded on these slabs and I think it may be a genuines company.
I saw this the other day after Goose3 pointed it out and e-mailed the seller. They said they know nothing about the service since they are just the middlemen for a large coin collection that is being sold through them.
Theirs:

Interesting. Possibly a true service and fairly recent. The outer shell does match that of ANACS. The Amos press/Coin World holders do not come with white inserts but this does NOT appear to be an ANACS insert either. The ANACS inserts have the ANACS pyramid logo molded into the lower right hand corner on the reverse and I don't see any trace of one on the scan. I'll have to send an e-mail off to ANACS and Amos press to see if they know anything about this company. We may have another case here of a company using pirated shells.

Looks like someone using CoinWorld slabs to start their own " Grading " services.
