Details Photos are scans of the actual CGC slab being sold with the book having been graded and ecapsulated by CGC. This book is uncirculated (never before offered for sale) and was recently submitted to CGC, having come from my personal collection, the bulk of which I have been selling on eBay as raw issues (click here to see what I have left ). I am now working through the higher value issues and having them professionally graded for sale on eBay. Shipping The slab will be safely and securely shipped using SlabShipper.com's pre-formed slab shipper and placed in a USPS Priority Mail medium size box. I can place up to 3 slabs into a medium box and will combine shipping for multiple (up to 3) slab purchases. The shipment will be insured for the default $100 priority mail insurance coverage. If you would prefer to have it insured for more, please contact me within 12 hours of purchase and I will work with you on that. Disclaimer I will do my best to protect the slab by encasing it in the plastic bag that all graded books come back from CGC in as well as the highly secure SlabShipper shipping material. These plastic slabs are rarely perfect and can be occasionally scuffed when received from CGC or experience what are known as "Newton Rings" where the inner well touches the outer one resulting in a concentric ring effect where the two cling to one another. These "rings" can occur and subside at any time as the item is handled/trabnsported and I can't be responsible for their appearence (and CGC will take no responsibility for them either). Please inspect the photos provided to see the condition of the slab as I do not offer returns or refunds.
