PCGS slab label question???

dizzyfoxx

No bar code on what appears to be a "present day" style PCGS label??? Is this from a specific time period, or a mishap during the grading process, or something worse???

There have been lots of theads on this lately. Most were not worded nearly so tactfully as yours. Good job.

Here is one of them.

The angry mob has quickly called real slabs fake and reported them to ebay resulting in innocent sellers' listings coming down. It seems that the ones that get mistaken the most are commemoratives from around the turn of the century with no bar code. The thought that someone would fake a 69 slab on a 3/4 oz silver coin should be enough to tip one off that it is not fake.

Update: Just realized the bar code is on the back of the slab label.
