From what I understand, this room is contaminant free and has no humidity whatsoever. I hope so otherwise our slabs would have moisture or contaminants! I sure would like to take a tour of PCGS's facility! swcoin.ecrater.com Report this Post to the Staff

wheatiefan Pillar of the Community United States 507 Posts	Posted 02/13/2009 11:13 pm I wonder about that, too. There's plenty of stories (with pictures) of people receiving slabs with eyelashes, hair, lint, and so on encapsulated with their coins... Report this Post to the Staff
vermontensium Moderator United States 16679 Posts	Posted 02/14/2009 12:00 am I'm more concerned with moisture being encapsulated with the coin. Eyelashes would add character to the coin swcoin.ecrater.com Report this Post to the Staff

ron6788 Pillar of the Community United States 655 Posts	Posted 02/17/2009 02:34 am I've seen some slabs with what looks like an air pocket inside so that it blurs part of the window and you can't see the whole surface. I think I may even have some like this. Would they give us a break if we ask for a re-slab? Report this Post to the Staff
