the new ANACS holders

GoldenEyeNumismatics

I like 'em! And they feel more rigid than the old "new" holder. It's overall more square, and a little thicker (I think) too.

Got a pic of the other side?

Lotsa of DETAILS on those coins huh?

cmerlo1

Haven't had one in-hand yet...they look great!

STONE

My only problem is the large white oval and small black print.

Everthing else looks alright thought

originalisbest

From that angle that '95-O dollar looks pretty appealing.

NumisOxide

Much better holder.

So they use the same holder for regular and "problem" coins now?

jabba

I would crack that 1843-O and give it some good pocket wear

Yes

Yeah, I like 'em, too. They took a little while to grow on me, but they're nice.

I didn't know that. In my last submission, made at the Charlotte show in March, I got the problem coins back in the oldstyle small holders, and the good ones in the new holders.

Maybe they're out of the small capsules, now? Or the Chinese counterfeit slabs based on the small capsules made them discontinue those?

I just had a couple of coins go there. 2 normal (Roosevelts) and 1 problem (key barber quarter but cleaned). All 3 came back in the same holder....less than 2 weeks ago.

according to their website:

Problem Coins Graded
ANACS is the only major grading service to grade cleaned, corroded, damaged, repaired, and other "problem coins". What will be written on the label will be the coin’s "detail grade" and the coin’s single most significant problem. The “details grade” reflects the amount of remaining detail on the coin, balancing actual wear with remaining sharpness. Such coins will continue to be encapsulated in the classic ANACS holder and label, rather than the new ANACS holder. The ANACS guarantee for such coins applies only to their authenticity, not their grade.

and I have an email from Customer Service from late July that said any ones NOT in the CLASSIC holder was a MISTAKE

Prevents me from sending in my coins. I have some damaged coins, but most are not. Being a collector, I want them all to match (they don't even fit into the same holders). Just silly that they losing business just to use up their old inventory.

If they use the new holders for problem coins, that's just stupid.

ScarsdaleCoin

Just goes from bad to worse.... now problem coins are in the newest holders.... too bad someone doesnt have a clue

Before the new holder, problems coins and non-problem coins were in the small holder. What's the big deal??

commoncents05

If I'm not mistaken, ANACS suddenly halted putting problem coins into the small holders because of counterfeit ANACS small slab(s) available on the market.

It's bad enough when people are just buying holders out there. To insist on being handheld further with different holders is ridiculous. Tags aren't that hard to read. And for anyone who argues that it is better to instantly know one is a problem coin, I'd counterargue that many of the most conservatively-graded non-problem ANACS coins are in the old holders that are not instantly visually differentiated form the small , white problem ones of recently.

Why? I've seen problem coins in PCGS and NGC holders. They just don't list the problem on the slab label.

TennesseeDave

I just got some coins back from Anacs today in the newest holders which I like a lot better.2 of the 6 coins had been cleaned and all are in the new holders with detail grades and the cleaning noted on the holder.The coins seem to be accurately graded IMO.

Here are some photos of the sample holder ANACS was giving out at the Long Beach show.

They can stand up on edge pretty easily.
The interlock "feel" when stacking them is superb. It wouldn't surprise me if you could stack them 100 or more high.
A recessed 'groove' runs around the edge of the holder.
The bottom of the holder has two raised 'curbs' that protects the bottom of the holder from scuffing.
The overall feel is very rugged and durable.
The ANACS folks I spoke to are extremely pleased with this new holder.

Those are net graded. You know, if you don't get it, you don't get it and I can't help you further.

Why don't they just do what the comic guys do? The put problem ones in the same holders, but put a different colour insert. I stopped sending things to anacs because I didn't want multiple size holders. If I wanted that, I would just send the "good" ones to PCGS or NGC and the problem coins to Anacs.

I like that they still list the problems..if any... on the holder. IMHO, I think the BB thing is bogus. If I pay to have something slabbed, it should be in plastic...regardless of what problems are present.. Leo

And NGC should naturally NCS slab authentic problem coins too, with a conservation release checkbox on the form.

Thanks, Dennis. The new holder almost make me want to send them some coins.

Will they reholder my other "new" holders for free? That old "new" holder is a stinker.

robkool

It's about time that ANACS is finally slab'n the problem coins in those new holders designed for the problem free coins, and no longer using those old small white holders. It would be nice if they can re-slab all mine again... You can certainly thank those clever Chinese for putting out those fake holders on the market. LOL !!!

MrEureka

If they use the new holders for problem coins, that's just stupid.

I disagree. Collectors of slabbed coins would prefer to have their problem coins in the same holders as their non-problem coins. And if somebody pays too much for a problem coin because he doesn't read what it says on the holder, he is the stupid one.
