Owner Comments:
NGC type 4 holder.
Holder has a light tan outlined (border) label on the front containing the date, grade & serial number. The NGC scales logo appears in white print on a tan horzontally lined background. (Earlier issues of this type holder had a green border & background.) The type 4 holder is distinguished from the type 5 by its lack of a barcode.
Holder reverse has a nearly full-width hologram of NGC's scales logo along with the words "Numismatic Guaranty Corporation of America". (This is the same hologram used on the later type 5 and type 6 holders.) Because the hologram was adhered to the outside of the plastic case, it was subject to scuffing and damage, such as that caused by trying to remove inventory labels & price tags placed over it by dealers & sellers.
This holder type was issued by NGC from about August 1989 through around 1992.
