Nothing jumps out fake to me. Of course I'm far from an expert.

I think it's real, at a less than real bargain.

I'm not a fake slab expert, but is the circle in the bottom left corner of the slab (near the coin) and indicator of any value?

Looks good from here.

Maybe it was my eyes at the time but the label looked wrong, the little circle lower left looked wrong and the stacking tabs looked to rounded. I also thought it was interesting that the listing stated it was a good candidate for CAC but they did not send it along with listing it for more than the last time it was listed and did not sell.

<< <i> and the stacking tabs looked to rounded >>

FYI - the stacking tabs on real slabs are "rounded". The arc of the stacking tab should be the same as the arc of the frame adjacent to it. On most fake slabs, the stacking tab is squared off. If you try to stack a fake slab with a real one they won't "click" together like two real ones would.

Fake slabs can stack too.
