<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Endeavor, post: 2207302, member: 60292&quot;]The origin for the term slider is a coin that is inferior to uncirculated coins AND is being mixed in with uncirculated coins.</p><p><br /></p><p>For example, a dealer is selling a roll of &quot;uncirculated&quot; coins but one of them is not uncirculated. Therefore the dealer &quot;slid&quot; one in with the rest.</p><p><br /></p><p>The reason others have posted a slider is a coin that is near uncirculated is cause normally the dealer would put one (or more) that is not too dissimilar so that it doesn&#039;t stand out. Technically though, a slider can be a very worn coin, but again, it would stand out and call attention to the dealers little trick.</p><p><br /></p><p>So basically, the term has now evolved into any coin that is near uncirculated. As though it could be used as a slider.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
