Title: The Aussie TPG folders
Post by: gnome on February 27, 2016, 03:46:43 PM
Just want to check on the long term effects about leaving these in their original grading packets. Alright to leave them or do they need removing. Not up to speed on these items.

The inner holder is a saflip yes that's fine.  I think the outer is pvc though.  I have not seen one of these in a while.

Were. I think, can't remember the full version now, but it was I believe the first Aussie company to do a  third party grading service

From memory that was Chris Buesnell's (Pacific Rim Coins) grading company.

Enough said there!

Mark had a 1961 halfpenny ACGS graded MS65RB crossed over to PCGS at the same grade (technically not crossed but removed and graded the same).

Incidently ICCS (Canadian) used the same Saflip/PVC flip encarceration.

Back around 2004? I purchased a few of his ACGS holdered coins when he ran monthly auctions. Back then I wasn't totally up with the Sheldon grading system, but if I was after something in a nice UNC, his MS63's/4s always stood up. I can't remember if his holders were hard or soft now I come to think of it, but I always re housed them anyway, even if I didn't completely know why at the time. :angel: Still have them and all good. :yahoo:
