<p>[QUOTE=&quot;LostDutchman, post: 1973928, member: 16994&quot;]Welcome to market grading 101. The market is willing to accept these problem coins in no problem holders. Why? Because it is VERY hard to find problem free examples of these coins... The demand for &quot;problem free&quot; graded coins is much higher then the actual number of problem free coins... So the grading services let &quot;problem free&quot; standards slip a bit and net grade coins with slight problems into no problem holders. The grading purist are rolling in their graves... But it&#039;s not new... It&#039;s been going on for years. Just learn why and how certain coins are graded... And try to weed out the market graded stuff. It can be done.</p><p><br /></p><p>That being said, I believe that both of the coins shown should be in problem holders.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
