Slab Experts?

NGC has used a star designation for premium quality coins. I have seen a Black star on the obverse label. Have any of you ever heard NGC using a large star on the reverse in that same flashy type material in a grey color that they also use for their logo? I saw one of these and thought it was unusual... is it unusual or uncommon?

    Thanks Placid... unfortunately, there was no picture of this star hologram on the back that I saw.

    The new NGC slabs have the ANA logo which was changed a few months ago. It has a star within a circle on one side.

    And that "star" is a stylized version of the Liberty head from the Peace dollar. That hologram was introduced right around the 1st of November.
