Whats the new craze when it comes to older holders?

We've all seen the prices soar for the white labels, doilys, and such. So what do you think might be the next new craze? I was thinking maybe coins graded ms60. Thoughts?

Maybe MS-60 CAC/Gold CAC. That shows a superior coin and already command premiums now. Pretty much the only reason why they would not be stickered is because of common OGH coin PVC.

Hm m m m m m . The Ratts??????? I will let you know if I get enough of them and then sell out at an inopportune time.
Did it once before.

It’s like a coin holder side interest thing for some of them.
Others may think some them undergraded.
Beats me. If I thought I knew I wouldn’t share. “Craze” is the perfect word BTW.
I don't think there will be another.
Any other holder is plentiful and not important enough in TPGS history. The only thing maybe remotely like the old holders would maybe be CACG samples- but there are tons of them, or CACG "L" legacy holders. They stopped doing that pretty quickly didn't they?

"Craze" is an apt word to use when people are paying premiums for coins in Accugrade holders. "Headdesk" is another.

The next craze on my radar is 1932 dated quarters. We’ve got about six years to stock up. Should be a giant spike in prices like with the 1921 peace dollar.
I dont think MS60s are overdue for much love, but eventually the green label slabs will attract premiums even if the coins in them are stinkers
Commems and Early Type
I would never buy a 60 regardless of the slab.
I think rattlers and OGH Coins are increasing and will continue to do so.

If we want to get funky and esoteric I'd guess OGH graded AU58 with a CAC gold sticker. The pool of such coins would be amazingly small, but I could see folks going after them hard.

The next craze will happen when PCGS changes to a new label.
Doubtful.

This was in an OGH before I had it's variety attributed.

There you go, @oih82w8 just made the process tougher for those AU58 OGH/Gold CAC sticker folks!

I don't mind MS60 coins at all, especially when in an old holder and when they contain nice coins. In fact, I look for them, also MS61's. Note: the 1856 gold dollar is an upright-5 that wasn't attributed back then. Don't know if either of these were ever sent to CAC -- they haven't been since I've owned them.
I've never sent any of my coins into CAC for a sticker and I own quite a number of rattlers and OGH's. This is primarily because I have no local authorized CAC dealer nearby -- closest one would be a 2 to 3 hours drive.
Both of those look very solid for the grade
If you can pull any Gold Stickers your trip would be paid for many times over. The multiples on those right now is crazy.

I like gold on green
I agree with you. I need to do this. And if I am going to sell any, I plan to do this. The premiums collectors are willing to pay for a CAC gold sticker is crazy -- ten times or more over Greysheet or retail.
I belong to a local coin club which has 75 members. While a few of us are well aware of the premium CAC stickers bring, and a few of us own coins with CAC green stickers -- which we purchased already having the sticker (I have 6 with green beans) -- I don't think any of us has seen or held in our hands a coin with a CAC gold sticker. Some of us have been purchasing coins in old holders back before they were considered old holders. One elderly, long-time member has been a PCGS member for decades and has squirreled away hundreds of PCGS coins that have never seen the light of day since and have never been sent to CAC. And you should see some of his coins -- once in a while, he'll pull some out to show some of us.
I tell you this because even though the perception out there is that all the Rattlers and OGH's that contain coins worthwhile to be sent to CAC have already been submitted to CAC is a big misperception. I know that this isn't true at all. And I am sure that there are other areas of the country, like mine, with coin collectors who have similar collections.
@bammbamm
In the case of the long-time PCGS member that has submitted for decades make sure to let them know the Rattler slab Boxes that the coins came back in for for almost $300 each on eBay and that is for ones that show wear and tear.

Neither of those coins are MS-60!
The MS-60 coins posted here are exactly why the grading services need to explain the grades. Tell me WHY the coin graded like it did. Id like to know why the grade was assigned after the 7 second "examination"
Collectors are people. People like the things of their childhood like old slabs, Tonka trucks and Train sets.

I’ll admit that those are nice and would almost certainly grade higher, today, if cracked out and resubmitted. I don’t recommend doing that, of course.

Don't worry, these two coins will remain intact in their PCGS OGH's, as will my other OGH's and Rattlers.
That’s an extremely nice example for a “60“ 😦

Mr CACtus
I look forward to seeing it.
I've actually been watching more coins in ANACS soapbox holders recently...

Never could figure that out. I hated the way coins rotated in the rattlers. Cracked a couple rattlers for upgrade one time though. Broke even.
Holder fetish seems to be rather common in this forum.
