<p>[QUOTE="Shortgapbob, post: 386234, member: 6088"]I think that the $100 price tag is an effort to keep low value coins out of "Genuine" holders. PCGS does not want cleaned generic Morgan and other inexpensive coins in these holders. Their goal is not to compete with ANACS. The idea is to be able to get five figure and higher rarities into PCGS plastic. </p><p> </p><p>For example, I recently handled a 1920-S $10 Indian that was a solid Unc coin, but had been lightly wiped on the obverse and would not grade. This coin would have been a perfect fit for one of these holders.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
