Rare Anacs 7.0 Holder Question

Just curious if this anacs hold would have a premium onto of the coins value since its such a rare holder. And if so how much? Obviously I kniw this would only matter to people that were into these old holders.

    Nice coin, but only the "gold" or "yellow" holders have a grade guarantee, only authenticity is guaranteed.

    How much of a premium did you pay to acquire it, that should answer your question.

    Why is it rare?

    These are rare? I thought they were current but with some weirdly specific use case.
    They feel really flimsy.

    I have not seen these go for a premium and consider them semi-scarce, not rare.

    Easiest TPG holders out there to crack.

    The holder in the OP is NOT a OSH Gen 7.0.

    Look at the location of the ANACS logo on the front of the label. On a 7.0, it is above the grade line. On the subject holder, it is aligned with the grade line.

    Additionally, the 7.0 holder does not include a website address on the rear of the label. The subject one does.

    On the slab you have pointed out it states "America's Oldest Grading Service" prominently on the right-hand side of the cert, but the image from the website shows that a 7.0 is lacking this text on the obverse and instead shows it on the reverse. Truly, there are more differences than just that, so it should have been quick to discount this as the rare 7.0 slab.

    I am not really familiar with ANACS holders.

    Notwithstanding, if I were forced to make a GUESS, it appears to be a GEN 7.2. See the "full history" at the bottom of the page, specifically 'Appendix - Figure 8', for the different varieties.

    These "quick release" holders were junk, which is probably why there aren't many of this specific generation. No premium in my book, but plastic collectors don't go by my book.
