A question about the new holder.

Looking at the new holder in a non-SecurePlus format, is there an easily recognized difference from the holder generation proceeding the change?? Thanks in advance.

I assume you're asking about the plastic, not the label?

What difference other than the barcode?

how easy is it to distinguish the new barcode from the old in a picture which isn't really clear?

For me not too hard. I dont see anything else that has changed with the holder.

My personal opinion is : there is more to the holder, than meets the eye.
But then... I'm still in the "guess the grade" mode

so if i understand correctly, the number of "little dashes" in the barcode under the serial number is just a few characters longer?? i guess i missed that and looking at new vs. old they appear the same to me.

thanks for the help.

Yes the old barcode was 16 digits and the new is 22. Link to the info

i guess it'll be something that takes time for me to discern, but in small pictures like the one on the left they look close to the same sans shield.

Use a real new holder not a mock up pic. Less free space on the label. Or buy a barcode scanner

The color is a bit darker and has a little texture in the blue portions. (for secureplus)

I am curious how a first spouse,first strike, secure plus label will look as they are already crowded.

I would assume there will be no FS holders as those are Moderns and they only do up to MS68 now.

The secure plus submission form does have the first strike option on it (+18.00).
