<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Mat, post: 1185889, member: 21445&quot;]Even though we have another thread on it, I will chime in...</p><p><br /></p><p>I too dont like ancients in slabs, as others pointed out in that thread, the most fun with ancients is holding a piece of 1700+ history. Part of me has ditched collecting U.S. coins because everything is focused on slabs &amp; the high prices with them have turned me off on getting coins I need to finish my u.s. type set. I also dont care for the whole &quot;registry&quot; thing either. I feel its only worth doing if you have bill gate&#039;s $$ to throw around. I like holding my coins &amp; I feel the rules that seem to be placed on U.S. coins doesnt allow me to enjoy holding something like my raw EF+ 20c piece.</p><p><br /></p><p>NOW, if some chance I could ever afford gold pieces that are in this threads link, part of me would want them in a slab for protection due to the big bucks those coins are. It would be fun to hold for sure but I guess if I had that money to play with, a &quot;plastic coffin&quot; would make better sense then a 2x2 plastic flip.</p><p><br /></p><p>But for every day silver roman denarii or a $8 late empire bronze, heck no!![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
