I would like to have this Athenian 2500 years old hemiobol for protection - its diameter is about 7mm
Any idea if PCGS, NGC or other would slab it?

Thanks

As far as I can tell, PCGS does not slab ancients. NGC and ICG do offer that service although it appears that ICG will only slab Romans so NGC will probably be your best bet.

ANACS slabs ancients. I just contacted them. At the moment, ICG does not. They told me that their ancient expert left ICG. They may get the service back.

I also have one of these little guys. I won't slab it though but have thought about it. Now I know.

I would put it in the smallest Airtite they make. You may have to make some modifications to have it fit.
