<p>[QUOTE="Conder101, post: 1169217, member: 66"]Have you ever really looked closely at the PCGS slab? On a great many coin the clear "rubber" insert wraps over the rim and obscures MOST of it. It gets very frustrating on some 19th century coins where whether or not it is a proof or a business strike is important so you try a check out the rims to see if they are squared off and you cant SEE the rims because they are covered by that rubber insert. I've seen coins that were described as having unlisted rim cuds which when you see a good picture the "cuds" are actually that rubber insert.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
