By the way... I don't own a bunch of 1798 DOLLARS. I own a bunch of 1798 cents, most of them ratty. I wish I owned ONE 1798 dollar... it's on my list! =)

If I was seriously considering shelling out this kind of moulah ($ 50k +) for ANY type of slabbed coin, I would first have to ensure that the slab is 100% authentic without ever having been altered whatsoever.

It makes me nervous hearing stories about genuinely authentic coins being removed from their original slabs and then subsequently being replaced by fakes.

I've never been able to find a quick and effective litmus test to check the slabs before wasting non-productive time authenticating a coin that is more than likely counterfeit or illegally altered.

IMHO if the slab is questionable, I would find it difficult to support any argument to continue grading the accompanying coin.

What is the absolute best way to know that a (in alphabetical order: ANACS, ICG, NGC, and PCGS)-graded coin has never been tampered with etc...?
