[QUOTE="Insider, post: 2352000, member: 24314"]Easy right? Now one little suggestion :angelic: you may wish to try these terms so more collectors will agree with you: "Liner" usually is used when a coin is borderline between two grades while "Slider" is usually used to describe an About Uncirculated coin which many would "slide" up to an Uncirculated. This does not mean the coin is really Uncirculated. "Slider" has a "bad" connotation as many of the people selling "sliders" as Unc's are not on the up-and-up. Something else to consider: If the TPGS are applying the commercial "grading of today" as described by Bowers (many formerly graded AU coins are now considered Uncirculated0; are they not grading "sliders?" :shifty::smuggrin:[/QUOTE]
