<p>[QUOTE="messydesk, post: 3629017, member: 1765"]That's one of the reasons why slabs get trashed. Being all scuffed up is also a tell that a coin in an old holder has seen a lot of mileage with nobody thinking it's worth regrading. I remember a cent I was looking at that was being offered by a respected dealer in the field. The holder was so trashed, you couldn't see the surfaces of the coin, but that didn't stop them from asking a strong retail price for it. I get it if you don't want to reholder a copper coin that's in a 25+ year old holder, but the least you could do in that case is polish the holder, especially if you want any hope of justifying premium prices.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
