Should I get it re slab ??

Here a few coins that I've bought long time ago and wonder if I should get them re-slab ??

Why? What the devil is wrong with it? Looks just fine to me..........

 

What Green said...

 

Ya never touch an OGH......

 

At least I don't do........

 

Same for ANACS soap bar slab.

 

I don't see any reason to change the holders. The 80-S might look better with a quick dip but I don't think it's worth the cost.

 

Why are you afraid to show the Cert #? Do you think someone will be able to track you down?

Leave them the way they are.

Heck NO, Go Green and save on Plastic.
Nothing wrong with what you have there.
I like the 21 Peace.
Don't worry about showing the labels.

 

I wouldn't. There's nothing wrong with the slabs they're in and sometimes the older slabs can be viewed as a plus. Nice coins, btw!

 

I just want to see what you all think about them slabs. The 21 is MS 62 and the 80 S is MS 64 and the 84 CC is MS64

 

Leave well enough alone.

 

I get my coins recertified every 5-10 years to make sure they are still real.

 

Only reason to reslab older holders like that would be if the slab was significantly damaged. The older holders can have a desirability factor of their own which you would lose.

 

waste of $'s to reslab

 

The coins are clearly stable in the 20 year old holders and since I prefer slabs as a means to PROTECT the coin, I see no reason to reholder.


FWIW, the ANACS SWH is from the Amos Press ownership days after ANA sold them.

This is the period where they destroyed their reputation by moving to market grading (oh the horrors) while all of the GOOD TPGs kept doing strict ANA grading. It was also 20 years ago.

Now ALL of the TPGs do market grading, and ANACS' 20 year old grades are considered spot on.

 

FWIW, I sold all of my certified Morgan dollars (small ANACS, NGC & PCGS) about two years ago, and all of those in the small white ANACS slabs sold for more than what I paid for them.

Love those old soap bar slabs

 

Were they severely under-graded by modern standards?

If the 1921 Peace or the ANACS Morgan graded say, MS-64 or lower, I can see the incentive... though I'm not 100% sure what the realized auction price differential is between 64 (?) and 6X grade, or what the actual premium difference between OGH and 1-2 higher graded slabbed coins are. That said, I'd do that to upgrade or enhance my collection, but that's just how I do things. Or if you need the cash, it may be worthwhile.

And, the OGH Morgan looks to have less leeway on a re-grade, depending on what grade it was assigned. If say, it's MS-63, it could reach MS-64 today. I've seen 64's looking like that with the fields looking largely blemish-free and with more-or-less expected noise in the cheek / face area. I don't think it'll reach 65 if that's what you're looking for... All-in-all, it's a relative numbers game and what you plan on doing...
