They used to use the yellow labels for problem coins and noted the problem on the label such as "SCRATCH" or "CLEANED". Later, they just used the same blue label as for the regular graded coins but continued to note the problem on the label. I am talking about the early small sized white slabs. Not sure about the newer large sized slabs.

As a data point: I have a problem-free MS66 1oz Rhodium medal from The Cohen Mint which is in a yellow ANACS holder.

I revised my original post to clarify that my comments pertained to the older small white slabs. Is your coin in one of the newer larger sized slabs?

Not much anymore as they basically used them intermixed as ownership changed hands.

Yes, it's one of the newer ones (not just the yellow rectangle in the white holder). It's very comparably sized compared to PCGS/NGC slabs with a translucent body:
The slightly older ones are similar holders with blue inserts.

the white holders for problem coins. Be careful of Trade $ in the old white holders with the "Austin"
style label, as counterfeits have been made of these (both the coin and the holder are fake).
They switched to the blue labels with the new holder in 2005-2006, and kept using the blue labels
until mid-2008. Coins sent in for reholder in blue label holders are re-encapsulated in the latest
style holder, but with a blue label.
The gold label started in mid-2008 (not sure of the month) and are used for all submissions since then.
