    How many of those hinged NGC slabs are known to exist? That's a really cool sample slab!

    Not sure, but it's the only one I've ever seen.

    Fun to see some different samples "brands". :+1:

    This one is a little rough on the surface, but a Doily nonetheless;

    Wow - that www.SmallDollars.com sample slab brings back memories. That looks like the counterstamped version - I did the colorized counterstamp on that one.

    Here's the only known Merc in a PCGS sample - very odd numbering scheme as well.

    Somewhere I have a sample slab from the company that took over from the bankrupt PCI. I think these were the guys who got into major trouble. I had written to ask if they would do any "vanity" sample slabs and they wrote back that for the time being they had not considered it as they were just getting things up and running, but they did send me a sample slab of their own.

    One of my main specialties is sample slabs. I had the fortune of acquiring every sample NuGrade piece and some other odd ones. I have 3 PCGS boxes full and another 50 slabs besides. Are any in the OP for sale?

    The owner of MMNS (later MNS), told me this was the only Sample he made.
