That is one of my ACG samples !!

Is NTC still in business?

These will go next to my favorite trio of Norweb coins from Canada SP, the 1875-H 5c 10c and 25c specimen strikes. LOL.

Did you mean NGC (not NTC) as one of the top 4?
The Doily Sample will always be recognizable and desirable, but I seem to run into them a bit more than I would expect. Granted, each of us operates in our own numismatic world and perhaps I have just been in the 'right places at the right times', but I do seem to see a large number of Doily Samples . . . moreso than the scarcity of the Doily holder in general would seem to indicate.
At any rate, after I put four of them into the Doily Set and kept seeing more, I started to 'pass' and concentrate more of the regular Doily.

A Compugrade sample slab, could do well.
Be aware though, the sample market is all over the place at the moment.
I don't think anyone can judge the price of sample slabs just now.

<< <i>I have a few NTC sample slabs with state quarters. Are they worth anything? >>
Mass quarters? I seem to recall seeing those in the NTC samples. They are somewhat easy to find, but are getting tougher. Pricing ... um, perhaps retail in the $15-20 range. Thoughts from other sample slab geeks?

Not that I'm one of those sample slab geeks................just saying!
