I'm simply stating my opinion that the need to encapsulate is a bit overdone. How valueable is a modern coin in tpg ms 69 condition when you can find literally hundreds of such coins for sale? I'd rather spend my money on coins than plastic. Is that clear enough? I guess what I'm saying is I don't buy into a publication that tells me a statehood quarter is worth like $100 because it's in a plastic holder that says ms 70. Perhaps you think that is a bargain or something. If you can counterfeit a coin, you can counterfeit a slab. It is not a foolproof way to purchase coins sight unseen. I'll take the "raw" coin I can see with my own two eyes over a slab any day.
