  You ask them to slab it that way and they will.

  Ditto the above comments. It is somewhat common to do if the reverse of the coin has very desirable toning, and the obverse does not.
  
  The first time I had this done was about 6 years ago for a 1955 Franklin I have in 65FBL. Except for this one the reverse had unusual, interesting (but not in the sense of AT), and the obverse toning was ugly, ugly, ugly, but intriguing in its own special way (but not in the sense of AT). I had bought this coin from DH himself in the late 80's.

  I just got an error back, with the error being on the reverse, and they put the coin in reverse up (without me asking).

  But how can you be sure if they got it right or made a mistake and put it in backwards?
