First time I've seen an ATB up close. I think it's huge. And, in a slab, it's almost ridiculous. I ordered one with an ASE and it dwarfs it. Heavy, too. Just thought I'd mention it to anybody thinking of getting one. They're really special IMO.

Thanks. Good picture to show the difference in slab sizes.

Wow, that is nuts. Among comic books, there are comic and magazine sized slabs. I find the magazine sized ones too large. The difference here is even more extreme.

I've never seen one in person. That is a beast. I'd thought of those for future collecting, but I love my binders with TPG s in 9 pocket pages with my raw in 20 & 12 pocket pages in the same binders. I can't think of a way to put those gigantinormous monsters in a binder. Thanks for the comparison.

The PCGS slabs are much smaller than NGC uses. The ANACS ones are somewhere in the middle but still fit in a standard bubble mailer. For whatever reason NGC went huge with them, but at least you have an extra TV dinner tray now as well as a new coin

wow.. I wonder, is that slab bigger or smaller or the same as the slabbed used for the 150 gram proof silver panda?

Quote: "gigantinormous" Love it! BTW, I got this ATB at 50% over spot- probably, most of that went into the plastic, lol. Raw, you might be able to get them at just 25% over (but not the rarer ones). I'm looking for bullion value first, then aesthetics.
