The actual paper insert with the writing is what he saves. Why I dont have a clue maybe for his records.

I would never crack a key or semi key date coin from the top grading companies.
I would, in a heartbeat. Otherwise, those 1909-S VDB, 1914-D, and 1916-D Dansco album holes might not ever get filled!

I am still hoping I to find at least one of these raw and that I am confident enough to authenticate it myself. However, I have accepted that I will probably have to crack one out eventually.

If I wanted it out I would crack it. Handle it carefully as to not hairline it when putting in the album and if you ever needed to grade it in theory it should grade the same.
