2nd Indian Head cent I've found CRH'ing. Pretty beat up but will be slabbed and added to the collection.

NY Islander,
Slabbed means a TPG encases it in a slab.

A slab is a hermetically sealed enclosure.

Most people see "slabbed" as meaning professional graded as well as encased. You clarified it though so no big deal.

I bet a good acetone bath would remove that gunk on the obverse.

Slab = TPG
