Here is an idea about reholdering/crossing that would benefit all!

Just like PCGS reholdering GSA Morgans why can't they reholder in the bigger PCGS holder any older holder from old PCGS to old NGC so collectors can cross them into PCGS leaving the coins in the older holders, I would love that and send all my NGC No Line Fatties in to them then. Just an idea.

About a decade ago Accugrade used to slab ICCS graded coins and tokens
How about this scenario. PCGS makes a slab that holds the Fatty, which already has a CAC sticker. Then you send it back to CAC and they don't sticker the new holder?
Or you holder a Gold CAC Fatty at 65, but PCGS puts it in a 64 holder. Now that would shake the worlds confidence in CAC.
I personally would love to own such a coin in such a holder, but she ain't gonna happen.

IMHO, you hit 'er right on the head there, erickso1

BUY THE COIN, not the holdeRRRRRRRRRRRRs!
Most people, when they buy jewelry or real estate, put the inspection and appraisal reports away after they complete the transaction. We coin guys proudly display the appraisal as if it's more meaningful than the coin itself.
I'm slightly guilty too, as I play in the registry and prefer my coin in certain plastic. Mostly I keep them in the slabs to protect the coins from me and to assist with liquidity should I wish to part with them.
This idea is too far down the lunacy path for me though.

Rick, that's just so quaint.....
Actually, I agree with you pretty much completely except that I do prefer the PCGS
holder over any other both aesthetically and for the highest quality grading it insures.
