I know the coin is a dud, but is the holder worth a premium?

This coin is part of a trade which I received yesterday. It is not a genuine Mint error, look for another thread on that subject. I was curious about the slab, though - ACGS, American Coin Grading Service. Weren't these guys a precursor of ACG?

I'm returning the coin to my trading partner, it would be nice if he could recover some of his initial cost by selling the holder as a collectible.

Incomplete planchets wanted, especially Lincoln Cents & type coins.

    MAN, in some weird, heavy-duty industrial way, that's a KOOL SLAB

  • There are a bunch of their slabs out there and the slab itself does not carry a premium.

    For posterity's sake, just thought I'd save this quote from Dorkkarl before he edits his post. image
