<p>[QUOTE=&quot;David Setree Rare Coins, post: 2898843, member: 74719&quot;]I&#039;m pretty old and what I recall was calling them &quot;sliders&quot; because of one of two reasons.</p><p><br /></p><p>The first, and oldest was because many old time collections were housed in cabinets in velvet lined trays. The coins slid around when the drawers where opened and closed and the coins suffered impaired luster on the very&nbsp; highest points.</p><p><br /></p><p>Second, and more recent, say, 1960 and up is that the coins were kept in albums with plastic slides that put fine scratches or wear on the highest points when they were slid in and out of the page.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
