Let me share why I asked the question as to what you would think. Now keep in mind that I do this for a living, so my thoughts may differ from most. When a customer walks into the office or up to the table at a show with a large grouping of coins, the first thing that comes to mind is consistency. The first thing when seeing old holders is "Will this coin upgrade"? Now if you sprinkle in new holders, I have to ask myself why didn't this person re-submit the old holders? It will be a quick assumption by most dealers. This tells you that the coin is either weak or solid for the grade. Now most people especially dealers always assume the worst. Now my suggestion is go with the offensive and take into consideration that MOST people are hoping for the regrade. Keep them in the old holders and let someone else take the shots. I have old slabs sitting on my desk waiting for the next owner to take a shot.
