<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Jaelus, post: 3174041, member: 46237&quot;]There are absolutely details coins that should be in a holder.</p><p><br /></p><p>Reasons to knowingly submit a details coin for slabbing:</p><ul> <li>The coin is exceptionally rare and problem-free examples are either virtually unavailable or prohibitively expensive.</li> <li>The coin is very valuable, even in a details grade (rare key dates for example). This is especially true if the condition of the coin makes positive identification of the date or mint mark difficult.</li> <li>The coin is of an exceptionally rare variety and the marketability would benefit from having the variety on the label. This is especially true if the condition of the coin makes positive identification of the variety difficult.</li> <li>The coin is from a well known collection or otherwise has a valuable provenance that can be on the label.</li> <li>The coin is frequently faked and having it in a genuine holder greatly increases the marketability (for example trade dollars and classic US gold).</li> </ul><p>I have a few details coins in my collection that fit the above reasons and that I am happy are slabbed.</p><p><br /></p><p>Aside from the above reasons, you generally won&#039;t benefit from slabbing a details coin and may hurt the value.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
