[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 2188035, member: 112"]What he said ! And it will. The problem is some folks can't see it to begin with because they don't know what they are looking at when they do see it. In other words, they don't even recognize that it, the PVC contamination, is even there on the coin. And even folks more don't recognize the damage that was caused by previous PVC contamination because they don't know what that damage looks like. Neither NGC nor PCGS will grade or slab a coin that still has PVC residue on the coin. So when you see a coin packaged like the OP's coin is, that's what it means - that PVC residue is still physically present on the coin. That said, if a coin was previously damaged by PVC contamination, but there is no longer any PVC residue on the coin, then they will slab the coin and put it in a slab with the Damaged designation or code.[/QUOTE]
