A holder with a scratch never held me back, I buy the coin, not the holder. That's just me. I'd never pass on a coin graded appropriately due to a scratch on the holder. That's just petty and picky in my opinion.

Just think about the damage to the coin if it wasn't protected by the holder.

Now that's a scary thought. I recall that chocolate is a good dog laxative.

Chocolate is poison to dogs. They definitely don't mix. My puppy ate a "fun size' candy bar and it cost around $1000 for the emergency vet visit, IV's, stomach pumping and charcoal the pumped back into her stomach. Not to mention the charcoal making it's return mess I dealt with for 2 or 3 days.

JSW, you'd be wrong about that. Coins in damaged holders are harder to sell and stick in inventory longer.


This is true, but it also works to your advantage at times; I've scored some excellent deals on Morgans in damaged holders (usually when someone tries to use acetone to remove residue, or when they've been cracked/mishandled/broken.) I don't usually reholder them unless they're significantly valuable; they tend to get cracked and added to the Danscos.

Sorry to hear COTW, I remember when you got that coin. Still a nice one..I don't know if it's worth getting reslabbed or not. Maybe you could throw it in the air-tite and spend the grading fee to add another coin o your collection!

Can I sell you a pristine MS-65 1942-S Walker with an NGC logo ripped up on the back? Been holding this one for a while and it is at bid.
