    A slider is the equivelent to an AU61-62 or an MS58. It has a very minute bit of rub that for the most part can pass as uncirculated and more often then not will on the retail market.

    PCGS Official guide to coin grading and counterfeit detection definition.

    "A term used to describe an AU coin that looks, or can be sold as, Uncirculated. Occasionally used in reference to another grade; a slider EF coin, for example, would be a VF/EF coin that is nearly EF."

    Also I have seen it used in other context. The term is also sometimes used loosely to refer to slight friction marks caused by album sliders.

    You wouldn't believe how long it took to get him to sit still for this.

    Yes, every time. I've personally inspected all of the millions they've sold.
