I am not an expert on this subject, but I have broken open slabs and the damage is usually greater then what you show. The missing plastic chunk is concerning. This is a Thousand dollar coin and there are so many fake slab coins out there. Go to the NGC website and enter the registration number and see if the coin matches up with the coin in the slab.
Good Luck

Based on the photos on the NGC certification site, it looks like the exact same coin, so I suspect it's just damage to the holder.

Agree that it looks like minor damage to the slab. This common gold coin should sell in the $550-600 range in this grade. You should be able to find slabbed examples in MS-63 for very little more money.

Although this is true most of the time I've freed many coins from NGC slabs and have on multiply times I swear with a little super glue you'd never know it.

Like stated above compare coin with NGC site.

Your pictures are not very good to tell much. But the NGC label seems authentic - just look the number up on the NGC slab number website......

Looks like damage to me.

I have broken open an NGC slab or two, so I have to say a tampered slab should look worse. YMMV.
