Dads Stuff Posted November 27, 2005 Report Share Posted November 27, 2005 I can not figure out why this coin would be encapsulated? Am I missing something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burks Posted November 27, 2005 Report Share Posted November 27, 2005 No idea why but is it in third party grading slab? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dads Stuff Posted November 27, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 27, 2005 I have no evidence that it has been graded hence my curiousity in why it would be in this type of holder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Art Posted November 27, 2005 Report Share Posted November 27, 2005 Is there any writing or label on the plastic holder? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GDJMSP Posted November 27, 2005 Report Share Posted November 27, 2005 Show a pic of the entire holder - then we'll know. It appears as if it might be in a PCGS slab - if you're asking why, that's easy. If a coin can grade high enough it can be sold for a lot of money.

LostDutchman Posted November 27, 2005 Report Share Posted November 27, 2005 I see this a lot......old collectors used to do what people are doing today....saving the new coinage of the day...like todays state quarters...a lot of the time older collections will have some spendable change in them...this might be the case here to me it looks like it is one of those hard plastic 2x2's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Sisu Posted November 27, 2005 Report Share Posted November 27, 2005 You might want to edit the sub-title for the name of the thread. It threw me off for a moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
