Slab history — PSA 9 copies that have sold more than once

2 slabs have sold more than once, across 3 resales. That is 2 of the 8 distinct slabs behind 11 cert-linked sales at this grade — 25%. The rest we have seen sell once, which is not evidence they have not sold before.

Cert	Sales of this slab	Between	Gross change
#56626481	May 2026 $22→Sept 2026 $80	3–6 months	+263.8%
#44217821	Nov 2019 $8→Nov 2020 $38→Jan 2021 $50	Under 3 months	+565.8%

A cert reappearing shows the same physical slab sold again — it identifies no buyer or seller. Gross change is price to price; fees, shipping and the grading cost are not in it.
