    Well @SensibleSal66 . Now that the auction is over I can reveal that there really is a coin that is rotated in the holder. i won this 1905-O Micro O Good 4 Barber dime in old Anac holder last night. This is one of more than a dozen baber varieties on my hit list (Plus is in old Sm Wht Holder).
    My research indicates that the 05 micro "O" is more of a popularity contest winner than a sreiously hard to find coin. For that reason I was more than happy to settle for a humble Good-4.
    It is in my preferred holder. It only cost me $50 + $29 juice. It gives me a Good-4 grade coin and i always try to build a grading set within any date type set i build.
    Now I just have to find out if the advice is right and I can finally get some use out of that cordless screwdriver (AKA electric toothbrush) the little girls at the Mankato Dental School brow beat me into getting. James

    Good luck with the slab vibration test, I'll bet you figure out how to make it work.

    ANACS not ANAC.

    The coin in the holder is held by friction (people decided they didn't like the little dentil grabbing nubs). And thus can rotate. You can probably get it to rotate back if you gently tap it on the edge for a few hours. Or rotate you head and enjoy the coin as is :).
