This slabber can't even spell "numismatic" correctly.

That is hilariously bad. I don't think a single collector is gonna be fooled by it. It isn't even a replica, it's just trying to be like them.

They even appear to have their own grading scale, looks like an XF coin stuck in that slab. Maybe they give these out at Halloween or use as jokes at the LCS. Perhaps there is chocolate inside the foil wrapper.

It was in a listing of a large collection of coins. I would have got it just for the fun of it, but the lot already sold.

https://offerup.co/Jl0pvdTx22Alright finally tracked down the seller. They are selling both coins in different listings. They keep taking down the listing and resorting the coins, so this listing may go down again soon.

Looks like the "slab" is sealed with clear packing tape. Wonder what the bar code actually represents...
