But this one doesn’t have the notches and there is a decent amount of space around the whole card. Also looks to be in a penny sleeve. Has anyone seen a SGC slab like this? I haven’t really heard of the Sanella being counterfeited, but just the slab seems off to me. Below is a picture of the odd one and the second pic is more what I’m used to seeing from SGC.

Yes, I have 3 T3's in slabs that look just like this. All have the newest label design, like yours, so it must be a newish thing for them. Mine are (were) also in baggies. I cracked two out, but one remains in the holder for now. I'll post pics when I can.

EDIT: Here is one of them. The insert looks pretty bad, I'll probably crack this one too.
