Nickels New Member Canada 9 Posts	Posted 01/06/2008 7:34 pm Starting to worry now. I was at a coin shop today. Told the guy that I only been collecting ICCS graded nickels. He went on to tell me that he has stopped sending coins to ICCS because the plastic sleeves are not tamper proof. Also he told me and I heard this elsewhere that ebay doesn't endorse ICCS. All graded coins should be in tamper proof hard plastic sleeves. Should ICCS changed their packaging? Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Bert Report this Post to the Staff

It should be obvious that a new case is needed. I feel that their cases are inadequate- its like having your coin in a coin flip, only with a grade attached. After hearing that they can be tampered with, I wasnt sure if it would be a good idea to keep buying ICCS graded coins. At least one cant tamper with a PCGS slab without cracking the slab. I have a lot of ICCS coins and would certainly like to see them change their packing- even if it means paying more for submissions or when buying the slabs. Report this Post to the Staff
KurtS Pillar of the Community United States 5318 Posts	Posted 01/22/2008 2:07 pm I've bought plenty of ICCS graded coins, so thanks for the warning...I was unaware. That said, no coin buyer should be satisfied with some blurry photo of an ICCS sleeve--and not so much the coin. Let's get back to coin collecting--and not slab collecting.
