We all know about the basement slabbers, but what company uses these stickers as found on this coin? A serious company or a basement sticker?

I wonder if its just a sticker they use in their shop, I've never seen that before though. It did look like it would peel off rather easily like some of the barcodes shops put on them

hmm, looked at his other items, and most does not have that sticker on it. Somce do, some even has the CAC and the other one.

Seems like he focoses on tomed coins, but I never heard of a gold coin tone, being as inert as gold is.

Alot of them are crazy toned, but since they are in slabs, I guess they passed without being labelled "artificial toning"

Or is it possible to artificially tone after it has been slabbed? By drilling a small hole in the weld and then have it in a sulphur rich environment?

I mean, how can this not be AT?

It's not even difficult to tone a coin in a slab - they're not air-tight.

Probably neither. It is nothing more than a sticker some guy used to identify his coins. Nothing to fret over since it will peel off rather easily.
