[QUOTE="kanga, post: 710835, member: 9270"]I'm going to "trust" the TPGs to take into account any "third side" problems when grading. And many edge problems also show up as rim problems. Therefore I don't feel I need "edge view" holders for reeded and plain edge coins. And "edge view" holders won't help in ID'ing or confirming reeding-count varieties. "Lettered edge" coins are a different story. Since that's an integral part of the coin's design, I would like to be able to see it. For instance, those who collect the Presidential dollars and want both the "letters up" and "letters down" varieties, seeing the edge is mandatory. I don't, so I have [U]very[/U] few "lettered edge" coins, and they are all in my type set. I may have only one. Don't know. It would be nice, but not essential, to see the lettering. I think, at least among the few I have, that the coins can be ID'ed without having to see the edge.[/QUOTE]
