Should I get it re slab ??

I noticed the milky toning spots on the 80 S and that brings me to a question. How much does that hurt a coin's grade and/or make it ungradeable? Whenever I've come across coins with any kind of milky spotting I always get nervous wondering if they "turned". Can a coin grading 64 or 65 or even higher have it and still be considered acceptable for the grade?

As for the coins in general and question about removing them from old holder, I would prefer them as they are. Even not considering the conservative grading, they show that the coin hasn't been messed with during the past 20 or so years.

Good point about the old holders and the conservation aspect to them.

I'd get it re-slabbed if it was a "massive" grade change and I was selling to subsidize my next purchase. Lots of CT members will probably disagree with me as there may be an absolute appeal to older holders. But if it went from say, an MS-62 to 65 or higher and it better helps to fund my next purchase, then I think it would be better to re-slab, than to sell it as-is with the hope that buyers will fork over enough of a "premium" with the "buy the coin and not the slab" mentality. However, one or two grade increases would already be factored into the price of an old slab holdered coin, so I wouldn't do it in that case.

 

Don't waste the $$

This seems to be the thread where I may find some advice. I bought this coin at a Florida Coin Show last weekend amongst others. This is a CC mint mark 1884 Morgan. My question is, can anyone identify the age of the slab and should I keep it in this slab or have it re-slabbed? I'm new to this and have been buying raw and slabbed Morgans for the past year and bought this one because it was priced right, probably because it was not in a recognised slab. Any comments always appreciated.

That's a Capitol style holder. It's not slabbed.

 

I also like the 21 Peace. I think you only reslab if you think it is under graded,
and the value difference between 1 grade point is significant. (Rare gold coin, whatever.)

 

Many thanks for your replies and I understand what it is now and eventually will have the coin graded and properly slabbed.

 

Nice toned CC dollar

 

I wouldn't

 

I would take the holder apart and clean the holder with water and a soft cloth. That would be a great time to take images of the coin. To me the coin needs to grade 65 or better to make it worth the cost of grading.

 

I have a few coins with scuffed holders that I want to have replaced, but that, and some others that I want in an edge-view for the sake of uniformity. Otherwise, If there isn't anything wrong, I'd leave it as is.

 

nope, unless you got money to burn.

 

Love that 21 Peace Dollar! I would not reslab, but my question to all is, "Should the PCGS coins be submitted to CAC hoping for a gold sticker?" Another way to ask the question, "Would you rather have a MS64 coin in an old holder with a gold CAC sticker or the same coin in a new holder graded MS65?" I like the undergraded coins in old holders myself.

 

The slabs are fine
