Do you see Genuine or NCS holders ever becoming collectible?? (New Link added 5-9-12).

Before you laugh, here is a pearl I picked up from an ebay auction tonight.......what do you think??

NGC no longer uses this type of clear plastic NCS holder for net graded coins; however, I'm a big fan of this particular holder and prefer it to the white plastic NGC holder. I think these clear NCS holders will become collector's items in the not too distant future, much like NGC black slabs, PCGS rattlers, doilys, and old green holders.

    Lakes,

    You need help, serious help.

    But I do have some more 2x2 flips from the 50's I will bring to Philly.

    Classic holders disirablity is based on the correlating perceived grading standard used at the time with the exception of black and doilys. Considering that gen holders aren't graded I doubt that they will ever set the wold on fire as the core coin isn't as exciting

    Only if the coins is super rare and an NCS or Genunie holder is the only way to find the coin

    No, but I did not foresee Hot Wheels cars becoming collectible either (or I would not have thrown all of mine out when I was 9).

    Also, they can be really hard to find. NCS coins aren't rare (even if they aren't extremely common), and there was little reason to break them out. Doilies and black slabs are available in limited numbers not only because their use was short lived, but because so many were destroyed (crack-outs and regrades) before the slabs themselves had value.

    Maybe we should just round up every coin that has any signs of a past cleaning as well as any
    coin with a scratch and just melt them and be gone with them once and for all.
    Heck - maybe anything grading under AU58 or with questionable toning should go too.
    And pass a law that if the plastic on a slab has any scratches, the coin must be sent back
    in and re-slabbed within 36 hours of noticing the scratch, with violators being subject to the full extent of the law.

    Now that would be nirvana - I might even be able to drink the blue flavor in public.

    Of course they will be "collectible," just as many other discontinued numismatic items are collectible. I just don't see the same fervor as Doily, NGC Black, or PCGS Regency slabs. For those putting together slab "type sets,"(all 12 of us!) there will always been some interest.

    And no, it was not my listing. image

    As a slab? No

    As to the coin inside? Yes

    And before people jump on this, just remember that a coin speaks for itself. image
