Do documents with punch holes that were stored in a binder automatically devalue the documents or is valuation more or less relative to the document in question or who it was issued to? Do documents with punch holes do devalue by how much? Does punch holes kill the demand for the document? Thanks in advance for any insight.

Question about documents with punch holes

I agree it's nothing but personal preference. It's never bothered me as my focus is on the details around the award, not really the condition of the paper itself.
I think that is the same for most paper collectors. For those who are concerned with condition, it seems to be collectors from other areas, medals for example who are simply looking for a good condition document to go along with a medal. The actual details of the award are almost irrelevant to them.Collecting German award documents, other paperwork and photos relating to Norway and Finland.

It depends. If it is a normal A5 size Urkunde like the EKI or II, I don't mind if it has two punch holes on the left side. If it is a bigger Urkunde like the DKiG, these sometimes have 4 to 8 holes when folded.

Post # 106, 6 holes
Post # 305, 4 holes, but in the worst possible location.
If I just look for "a" DKiG Urkunde I would pass on these, but if the name is important to me I will (have to) life with it. Same with being folded a lot or having stains. In the end the name and the history are more important to me.
